USED to be my favorite book on organ transplantation. Excellent, clear, and thorough coverage, but now too dated to be useful. Still waiting for the 3rd edition...

Relatively simple illustrations and text, but a broad scope that includes surgery, medicine, radiology, and pathology.
Heart TransplantationHeart Transplantation by James K. Kirklin MD
Buy used from: $274.93
Reads like a classic, with extremely thorough coverage of heart transplant. Getting a bit dated, but the bigger advances in this field are with VADs rather than transplants themselves, so this book will probably remain relevant for a while.

Buy new: $216.92 / Used from: $157.43
Very good coverage of underlying diseases, infectious complications, and basic science. More "medical" than "surgical" in content.
