In his Foreword to the first edition of Comprehensive Organic Transformations, H.C. Brown wrote One must admire Richard Larock s courage in undertaking this monumental task . I agree completely. But, there is an additional comment that I am moved to make on the second edition Thanks, Richard, for the valiant effort which produced this book indeed, many thanks from us all. 

There are many other reported methods for the oxidation of secondary alcohols to ketones in fact, over 140 different methods are listed in Comprehensive Organic Transformations by Larock. However, few are as versatile and useful as those listed above.
