"This is a color text/atlas on the peripheral nerve surgery of axial, upper extremity and lower extremity. Detailed anatomical cadaver, and intraoperative images are numerous on almost every page. ... Neurosurgeons and orthopedic surgeons in training will gain some useful information regarding the nuances of techniques presently utilized in, at times, a tedious dissection. The book overall is a mastery of technique used in trauma cases where there has been serious nerve damage." (Joseph J. Grenier, Amazon.com, July, 2015)
