From the reviews of the third edition:
"This atlas outlines basic vascular disease epidemiology and pathology, as well as more up-to-date vascular interventional issues and clinical outcomes. … It is suitable for medical students and healthcare professionals who see and treat patients with vascular disease. It is a valuable tool for junior vascular surgical trainees. … This third edition offers a more complete overview of many common vascular entities than the previous editions." (Peter A. Naughton, Doody’s Review Service, December, 2009)
