This book, which you now hold in your hands, will change how medicine is practiced around the world. It is an extraordinary book written by an extraordinary medical doctor who is also a pioneering scientist in the best sense of the word. Prof. Rong Xiang Xu has a very rare spirit, for he is a man with a compassionate heart who observed the terrible suffering of his burns patients and rather than simply accepting conventional treatments (which do little to correct the burns trauma), this doctor created, with much diligence and hard work, the new standard of care for burns treatment. I first learned of Dr. Xu’s work through reading the burns.
