First, you shouldn't be buying this book if you are a member of the CNS, since all of these chapters are available from Neurosurgery Online. Unless you want it in a fancy bound version, of course. The dissections and pictures in this book are the best. Professor Rhoton set the standard for studies of microsurgical anatomy, and this is his masterpiece. Though the pictures are phenomenal, I think there are two drawbacks. First, I feel that the book is hard to read, though I am not sure of a way to remedy this considering the material. Second, and more importantly, the fact that the captions spill over onto subsequent pages is a layout failure on the part of the editors. It makes it very difficult to look at the captions and pictures concurrently without flipping back and forth between pages. I wish this could be fixed. Otherwise, this book is great. I wouldn't start here, however. I recommend starting with your basic neuroanatomy, then moving on to Fossett and Caputy, and then to Rhoton. But to jump to Rhoton would be way too difficult.
The prose style (like a dissection manual) and gross anatomy photographs and cartoons of this anatomic atlas have been invaluable in helping me understand neuroanatomy. By correlating this information with the imaging anatomy outlined in Duvernoy's atlases, I have really advanced my grasp on neuroanatomy. The articles that comprise the atlas are all available online, but I can't print publisher grade images, and having this book in physical format (as opposed to a collection of pdfs) has made the information much more accessible for me.
Thanks a lot for the last but not least work done by our mentor, his seminal work, inspire us to do more, for our patinet and for our work! Dr Rhoton, our teacher, Thank you very much!
This is a book that i need. Thanks to for prividing it with lower price, and fast shipping. The book is in good condition.This is a "must have" book if you want to study neurosurgery, neurology, or anything related to surgery and anatomy of the human brain. The figures and texts are very concise, clear and complete. There is no wasting time or money if you own and really read this book. The best investment of learning for beginers and experienced experts. The colorful figure provide us a detail inside view thorugh the "road" of vessels, nerve and fibers. The surgical approach based on anatomical tip and tricks are also well-explained here. Thank you to dr. Alber R. Rhoton, Jr for providing advanced anatomical and surgical "textbook" on neurosurgery.
An excellent and very detailed treatise on anatomy of the CNS. The book is divided by anatomic regions and every chapter is illustrated with a great deal of superb quality photographies and diagrams, the main value of the book. The figure explanations are very extensive (more than the main text, indeed) and frequently they are extended over several pages. Their type size is too little and the lines too long. This creates some extra work for the reader. This is not a book for begginners and requires a previous knowledge of the anatomy of the central nervous system. It is a book to be recommended without any reservation to neurosugeons, and also to otolaryngologists-head and neck surgeons dedicated to cranial base surgery.
Professor Rhoton's book is and will be the future reference book for all Neurosurgical residents of the world as well as junior and senior neurosurgeons,applied neuroanatomist and those interested to read and enjoy the Vesalius of the 21st century .It has been the most important reading material for the 6 year residency programme of the Master of Neurosurgery(University Sains Malaysia)
