A joy to read.

I believe a good text to be one which is successful in presenting potentially complex concepts in a simple, clear and succinct manner without compromising pertinent detail. This is a good text - exceptional in fact.

An extremely effective tool. An absolute gem!

Really Cool Book by J. T. Stasiak (San Diego, CA)

This book succinctly and accurately describes the basic clinical assessment of spinal cord and nerve root problems in 121 pages. The fundamentals of the peripheral neurologic examination havn't changed much since 1977 when this book was written; there really isn't a need for a new edition. It has served me extremely well for 22 years and I highly recommend it. What is even better, I paid $22.40 for it in 1986!

Also highly recommended is Hoppenfeld's "Surgical Exposures in Orthopaedics" book. I am somewhat less enthusiastic about his "Physical Examination of the Spine and Extremities" (the "green book")--I prefer Bruce Reider's physical exam book.

This is without doubt one of the best illustrated and presented publications I have ever read. Presenting a complicated subject in such a marvellously illustrated fashion which is so brilliantly thought of makes me congratulate the author on his superb teaching technique. It really is a masterpiece of presentation and should be read by all clinicians dealing with its topics.

A wonderful book that presents a complex system in a very simplified format. I'm looking forward to a newer edition that would give further emphasis on peripheral nerve exam.

This book is highly recommended to all the residents in Orthopaedics and Neurosurgery.

As a neurology doctor, I found (and still find) this book helpful in the cartoon illustrations that detail everything from the nerve roots to plexus to individual nerves that innervate the various muscles.

I loved it when I was a resident in training for its very simple yet succinct graphical nature; as a picture is definitely worth more than a thousand words.

Those who enjoyed Ken Lindsay's Neurology and Neurosurgery Illustrated will certainly like this book and vice versa.
