Useful editionfor experienced neurosurgeons
This book highlights the major areas of basic science research in which progress is currently being made in the battle against the problem of spinal cord injury. It presents important advances in developing effective intervention to promote functional recovery after spinal cord injury through studies on animal models. A number of important insights on human injured spinal cords are presented through an experimentally induced lesion model system. A particularly exciting set of experiments provides compelling evidence for spinal learning - the ability of the isolated cord to make adaptions to new environmental demands. ... Read more

good intro. guide
This book has a great general guide to many, many aspects of spinal cord injury (22 chapters from range of motion and nutrition to driver's training and exercise).It amswers many questions if you have recentally suffered a spinal cord injury and are struggling though rehab, however for more in depth information I would look elsewhere. ...
