“This is an excellent text/atlas on the diagnosis, treatment, complications, and management of all midline tumorous lesions encountered in neurosurgical patients. … Full color photographs including cadaver and intraoperative views are included. The structures are perfectly described and labeled. … The book is suited for residents, fellows and neurosurgeons.” (Joseph J. Grenier, Amazon.com, May, 2016)
