to neurosurgery for junior surgical trainees and medical students.
The book concentrates on the principles of neurosurgical diagnosis
and management of the more common central nervous system problems,
including an understanding of neurology and the pathological basis
of neurological disease. There is also coverage of neurosurgical
techniques and postoperative patient management.
This new edition brings the text fully up to date and includes
many of the biological and technological advances made in the field
of neurosurgery that have improved surgical possibilities and
patient outcomes.

"What it lacks in colour, it more than makes up with some fantastic
diagrams, pictures and scans showing the important pathology of a
number of core problems. It guides the reader from clinical
presentation all the way through to postoperative care. Definitely
worth a look."
