"This is a detailed guidebook to the ventricular system of the brain with endoscope black and white as well as colored images through the neurosurgical endoscopy equipment. The History of the brain circulation and the ventricular system is excellent with several images of the pioneers in the field including Galen, Dandy, Mixter, covering the medieval, renaissance, 1800's early 1900's, and modern eras. ... This is a good book for clinical neurosurgeons." (Joseph Grenier, Amazon.com, April, 2018)
