Very detailed, almost too much
I would give a 4.5 if I could. Very comprehensive, almost to a fault. Much of the information is in a detail level that doesn't pertain to the practicing dentist. That being said, the book is well written and thorough. I haven't read all of the book, but my only critique would be to have more of a clinical perspective
