Customer Reviews from Amazon :
comprehensive
This book is comprehensive review of advanced wound care therapies. It covers the science, the clinical backing and evidence for many great products. Professor Kloth is internationally recognized as being an expert in this field. I have heard him speak at conferences and he is truly knows his stuff. The book is a great resource and well worth the money!

Great overall reference and for updated wound modality information
The chapters are written by many of the best practitioners in the field and the color photos and illustrations are striking. There are also "Pearls" that are highlighted areas of important points.
I am a physician specializing in wound care and was thrilled to find that this book is so up to date with information about modalities for wound care such as contact and non-contact ultrasound and laser therapy. This book is very complete in its coverage of wounds. It is probably best as a reference on specific points or for those with some experience in wounds; it would be overwhelming to try to tackle it as a novice. I believe it is a must have as a reference for a wound clinic or inpatient wound program.

Lots of information
This book has a lot of information and actually turned out to be a bit much for the class I am taking. It is helpful as an additional reference, but I could have gotten through the class without having it.
