What a great book. Having used the 7th edition often, this was a pleasant update to the old edition with updated photos, easier navigation of pages, and overall just a fantastic resource that Im sure everyone involved with neurosurgery for years has been using. The book in my opinion just feels cleaner with a better layout and color coding scheme that helps once you have used it a few times to quickly navigate an otherwise complex load of information. Cant really speak to how great the book is as I am still new to the field, but has proven itself time and time again for me in the short time owning it to be a great companion for rounds, pimp questions, quickly refreshing prior to cases etc... In my opinion the 8th edition is worth every penny for the upgrade from the 7th, however I really wish that a PDF, eBook, or some other quick referencing computer source came with it as it would be amazing to navigate 1000+ pages using control+F (find) for one specific bit of information without having to waste time finding what I need in the index then to be referenced to a different section etc....
As a recently graduated medical student, I have used the "Handbook of Neurosurgery" throughout my sub-internships as well as for general familiarity with a topic when I needed an overview and did not have time for full textbook reading. This book builds on the already well-established reputation of the previous 7th edition. The most notable changes as I opened this text for the first time is that the book seems to be much more well-organized (please refer to images posted). Overall, I felt that the easier to read format and updated content was enough to warrant upgrading to this edition, however as I continue to use this text I will come back and update this review. These are my initial thoughts on the book.
I carry this book in my briefcase, on my Kindle, and on my IPhone. I refer to this book more than any other as I take care of patients. I am very grateful that it is available in electronic form, but I still find the print edition easier to navigate for the quick piece of information that I am typically seeking. I would likely recommend this book over any other, if I were limited to one text.
very interesting and objective
