The third edition of the Atlas of Amputations and Limb Deficiencies is intended to “present the major advances of the past decade” for all members of the rehabilitation team. Many of the chapters of this book do meet that intention. Several chapters, however, are extremely brief in content and lack research published in the past decade. In this newest edition, contributors were recruited in the areas of care of people with wartime amputations, the role of the Krukenberg procedure in developing countries, the rise of the consumer movement for people with amputations, and the rapidly expanding role of sports and recreation, as well as osseointegration and transplantation.
This atlas is organized into 5 sections and 1 appendix. The appendix, titled “Terminology in Acquired Limb Loss,” is disappointing. It directs the reader to the Web site for the International Organization for Standardization and lists the organization's mailing address in Switzerland.
