These thought-provoking, yet witty quotes promise to keep the surgical team in stitches.Here's a sampling of this book's humor and advice:

• Never be embarrassed to look something up.
• Avoid scheduling an operation for the morning if you are leaving town in the afternoon.
• Don't throw instruments.
• If you must throw something, make it something disposable.
• Don't panic-even when it's obviously the most rational thing to do.
• If possible, leave the saphenous vein undivided in the leg until after heparin has been administered.
• In the event of a complication, the resident closest to the bed is assigned the blame.
