Review:

The latest technologies and surgical approaches for motion preservation of the spine

Over 100 authors contribute to this authoritative text and allows one to see in imaging and in drawings what actually is being done and the reasoning behind the surgery. -- ANJR

In sum, this book provides updated (2015) information on the dynamic reconstruction of the spine. This is an area where innovations are quite frequent, so it is imperative that the practicing or aspiring spine surgeon get the latest knowledge and stay current for a successful career. -- BIZINDIA

The editors have succeeded in producing a text that provides a complete and up-to-date reference on the current state of dynamic stabilization, as well as on the technologies that are currently present only in the laboratory or are in the process of transitioning to the clinical realm. ...A very useful text for any clinician who actively treats degenerative disorders of the spine.--Journal of Neurosurgery

"Excellent illustrations and well written and well referenced text accessible to those at all levels of expertise...worth its price...a must for any neurosurgeon, orthopaedic surgeon, radiologist, spine resident."--Doody's Book Reviews
