Although there have already been many distinguished publications, the book will, I believe, be of particular help to young neurosurgeons. I perform only a hundred or so operations a year, selected because of their technical difficulty. As difficult or unusual cases are rather few, it is important that every practising neurosurgeon should record those he encounters in exact detail. I would like especially to suggest to young surgeons that they draw detailed operative pictures of such cases, as I have done.
