From the reviews:

"This book presents recent updates and new concepts in the treatment of hydrocephalus from the fifth international workshop in Crete, Greece, May 20-23, 2010. ... The audience includes adult and pediatric neurosurgeons and neurologists, family practitioners, biomedical personal, and neuroradiologists. It is good for university and department libraries. ... This is a major contribution to the literature on the progress in the management of adult and pediatric hydrocephalus. It is timely and written by well-known authors in the field."
