Handbook of Neurosurgery 6th edition by Mark S. Greenberg, Nicolas Arredondo, Edward A. M. Duckworth and Tann A. Nichols remains the most comprehensive guide to neurosurgery available today. The book is packed with nearly 1,000 pages of "nuts and bolts" information and guidelines spanning the breadth of neurosurgery-in a pocket-sized format that allows quick access to the answers you need. As in the previous bestselling editions, the book contains thousands of literature citations, a thorough index, and helpful cross-references for ease of use. The surgical material has been removed from this edition to facilitate its use with Fundamentals of Operative Neurosurgery by Connolly et al.
With the fifth edition, the Handbook of Neurosurgery returns to a single, slightly larger, but still pocket-sized volume. To accomplish this goal, some material had to sacrificed. I felt that the strength of the book has always been in the clinical areas, and that the surgical material might be best left ot a book dedicated to that aspect of neurosurgery. The fifth edition also represents a strategic partnering with Thieme Medical Publishers. In addition to enjoying a wider distribution, the surgical material once contained winthin these covers and much more can now be found in Thieme's companion publication, Fundametnals of Operative Neurosurgery by Connolly, Choudri and Huang. Procedures performed in the office and raqdiology suite are still covered herein.
