From the book reviews:
"This is an overview of the principles of neuromonitoring and the role it plays intraoperatively in different surgical procedures. . The audience includes surgeons, neurologists, technicians, anesthesiologists, and even students, since it is easy to understand. . It is brief and to the point, a real pleasure to read. This is a must-read for anesthesiologists, although other physicians may find it helpful if they want to make a meaningful contribution to the care of their patients during surgery." (Tariq M. Malik, Doody's Book Reviews, August, 2014)
