The simple, case-based presentation of complex ideas and potential complications by major thought leaders in the field of spinal deformity surgeon makes this text a wonderful and valued addition to any surgeon's library, now or in the future. Congratulations to the editors, authors, and contributors for a job well done." (Griffin R. Baum, Neurosurgery, Vol. 83 (03), September, 2018)
"The case-based approach this book takes to spinal surgery and avoiding complications makes this a great addition to the literature. ... The audience includes spine surgeons and spinal trainees. It meets the needs of its intended audience and adequately covers the subject. The authors are experts based on their education, experience, and work in the field. ... As a spine surgeon, I found the book very informative, useful as a quick reference before cases, and helpful in operative planning." (Sajeel R Khan, Doody's Book Reviews, May, 2018)
