“Perioperative Considerations and Positioning for Neurosurgical Procedures: A Clinical Guide … aims to serve as the authoritative textbook regarding the positioning and preoperative assessment of the neurosurgical patient. … The aforementioned text is intended for neurosurgical practitioners of all ages and skill levels, but would best be set on a reference bookshelf in a neurosurgical resident call room. The strengths of this book include its accessibility/easy prose, the numerous pearls about positioning for surgical procedures, and the instructive photographs contained within.” (David P. Bray, Operative Neurosurgery, Vol. 17 (1), July, 2019)
