Review:

“The text is more encompassing in score and somewhat more descriptive in the text material than the prior edition...For the true student (we are all students) of neuroradiology, these books are a must, if not as a personal purchase (preferred) then for having direct access to them through a departmental or sectional library.

"Seasoned and young pathologists, as well as trainees, will find this book uniquely useful when dealing wih surgical neuropathology" issues

"The authors have succeeded in producing a book that is a reliable resource and a joy to read. It is clearly the product of collaborative effort by experts and is a special achievement in a crowded field.

The book will serve at daily sign-out and enhance teaching activities. Neuropathologists at every level will be rewarded and delighted by it. It is also highly recommended for any medical student, trainee, staff physician, or basic scientist with an interest in lesions of the central and peripheral nervous systems."
