Bailey & Love's Short Practice of Surgery, 28th Edition, edited by P. Ronan O'Connell alongside Andrew W. McCaskie and Robert D. Sayers, provides a foundational textbook for medical students and surgeons in training. Published by CRC Press in 2023, this work guides readers through core surgical practice principles, emphasizing systematic history taking, clinical observation, deductive reasoning, technical knowledge, and post-operative care.

The material connects fundamental clinical concepts with specialized surgical practice across broad patient groups. Notably, this 28th edition includes expanded coverage of paediatric surgery and transplant surgery. Across all topic areas, the content emphasizes a multidisciplinary team approach to patient management and highlights patient engagement in surgical decision making.

To reinforce learning and clarify clinical workflows, the text incorporates core knowledge summary boxes, structured tables, diagrams, graphics, and algorithms for patient care pathways. The overall content design aligns directly with both undergraduate and postgraduate surgical curricula.
