Essentials of Spinal Cord Medicine 1st Edition

[amazon template=iframe image2&asin=1936287382]

“From the first to the last page, this book is so full of information that as a person working in the world of spinal cord injury, I found myself in an unfamiliar situation. Never had I read a book related to my profession that I didn√åt have trouble putting down. I√åm not saying that such books are boring by any means however, they are not the captivating fictional reads that keep people up late on work nights thinking ‘just one more chapter.’ Essentials of Spinal Cord Medicine was that type of book for me!… Overall, I thought this book was nothing short of fantastic… it was so full of information that makes me feel more confident as a technologist, and more compassionate as a human. I would highly recommend this for any practitioner working in the field where they may encounter a person with spinal cord injury.” — Donna Jacobs, R. EEG T., CNIM, The Neurodiagnostic Journal
