Published Reviews

"This book achieves its goal of educating students and trainees about almost every topic in neurosurgery. It is comprehensive, yet to the point and brief enough to contain everything in one volume. This book provides a superb level of detail in its explanation of each topic, including a clear and efficient discussion of background and clinical relevance as well as scenarios."
