“This book is an up-to-date, well-organised and comprehensive reference for urological laparoscopy. … the book is easy to read. … will appeal to trainees, established urologists who are converting to laparoscopy and those who undertake this procedure on a regular basis. It may also be useful to anaesthetists and surgeons in other specialties performing laparoscopy. … Overall, this is an authoritative and balanced book, which would be of use to any urologist, especially those with an interest in the field of laparoscopy.” (Jyoti Shah, Annals of the Royal College of Surgeons of England, March, 2011)
