In 1916 Elsberg wrote "Diseases of the Spinal Cord" and in 1925 "Tumors of the Spinal Cord." The present volume is a modern version of both his previous works. Elsberg has been a pioneer in neurologic surgery, particularly specializing in surgery of the spinal cord. From his initial endeavors much of our present surgical technic has arisen as well as considerable knowledge of diagnosis and localization. In this volume Dyke discusses the roentgenologic aspects and Wolf the pathology. The result is an authentic statement of the subject well documented and derived from seasoned experience. The book is beautifully written and well illustrated and should be in every neurologist's library.
