"...a significant contribution to the field of nanoneuroscience and nanoneurosurgery ... the reader will come away with a deeper understanding of the history of nanotechnology and medicine."
-Neuroscience

"This is a monumental first textbook on nanoneurosurgery. ... recommended reading for neurosurgeons, neurologists, neuroradiologists and neuroscientists involved in research on new techniques for application in neurosurgery. Biomedical engineers and various companies developing instruments and devices would benefit from the wealth of information about trends for development of new technologies for neurosurgery."
