Product Description
Synopsis
A unique text, A Neurosurgeon's Notebook describes an expert neurosurgeon's way of avoiding trouble in the clinic and the operating theatre. Mr Adams, an internationally renowned neurosurgeon and teacher, has trained numerous neurosurgical fellows from around the world including the USA, Japan, Australia, Europe and South Africa. This text contains a distillation of his pearls of wisdom, taken from his own notebook, and gleaned from over 30 years' neurosurgical practice. A Neurosurgeon's Notebook is not intended as a comprehensive textbook of neurosurgery but rather covers those areas which cause difficulty for the trainee and qualified surgeon alike. There are unique chapters on: * neuroanatomy (with two sheets of origami to aid learning)* handy hints on history taking and neurological examination* fundamental surgical principles* talking with patients* unusual pathologies to watch out for, and* operative technical tips The text emphasizes the art and philosophy of neurosurgery and surgery in general. The chapter on history taking and examination is a wonderful read, and this chapter alone should persuade all medical and surgical trainees (not just neurosurgeons) to buy this book.

Additionally, the section on the management of pain is lucid and full of essential knowledge for every surgeon and physician. Neurologists and surgeons who operate close to the brain (ENT and maxillofacial surgeons) as well as neurosurgeons will find the fount of wisdom in this book invaluable in the management of their own patients.
