The book invites the reader to an exciting journey through the vast fields of neurosurgery, accompanied by a large panel of leading neurosurgeons. At a time when neurosurgery has a tendency to segment in many subspecialties, the goal was to regroup practical lessons from experienced neurosurgeons. In addition, the book represents an anthology of ninety worldwide recognized neurosurgeons, with the main features of their curriculum an dcontributions. The book has three volumes which cover the following items: - Volume I: Techiques and cranial approaches; vascular lesions; cranial traumas; CSF/ infectious disease
- Volume II: Intracranial Tumors; intraoperative explorations
- Volume III: Pediatrics; spine; functional neurosurgery; peripheral nerves
