Book review

Clinical Diagnostic Ultrasound. Ed. by Ellis Barnett and Pat Morley, pp. 616, 1985 (Blackwell Scientific Publications, Oxford), £120. IBN 0–632–00897–0

This excerpt was created in the absence of an abstract.

This book should have been a classic. Edited by two of the most eminent sonographers in the United Kingdom, it draws on the expertise of some of the foremost workers in ultrasound in the UK and Australia. The book was to cover the whole gamut of ultrasound imaging in a single volume. The text is informative as well as being readable and concise. It is therefore dismaying and depressing that a book of such magnitude and authority should appear so hopelessly out of date. While it is accepted that, particularly with a multi-author text, there will be delay in publication, it appears that the delay in this case has been a full 5 or 6 years.
