Georg Rodewald University of Hamburg Hamburg, Federal Republic of Germany Allen E. Willner Hillside Hospital Glen Oaks, NY In contrast to the initial years of cardiac surgery (37 years ago), there is now increasing interest in cerebral protection. Rodewald [1] in 1978 was among the first to point out the surgeon's concern with "psychopathological problems" and Taylor [2] in 1989 stressed that" --- the awareness of the cerebral consequences of open heart surgery has risen considerably in recent years - - - " This book reviews the evidence for neurological, psychological, and neuropsycho logical reactions to cardiac surgery.
