Here's the reference the Journal of Neurosurgery called "a welcome and most useful addition" and "definitely worth the price"-back in a meticulously revised and updated New Edition! Once again, it examines indications, operative techniques, complications, and results for nearly every neurosurgical procedure. A new co-editor, 31 new chapters, and a new standardized format make it essential to today's practitioner.
Reviews

The volumes are heavily illustrated with b&w plates and a group of color plates." SciTech Book News, March 2006
