It provides an accessible, detailed and well-organized introduction to neurosurgery, a highly sub-specialized field that most medical students do not get exposure to. As a woman interested in academic neurosurgery I especially appreciated the effort in representing female neurosurgeons among the chapter authors! The book has great illustrations, clear narrative chapters, and is very relevant to the clinical decision-making in neurosurgery I saw on my rotations. I will definitely be re-reading it cover to cover as I study for sub-internships. Review: The new must-have for med students interested in neurosurgery! - I started using this book during my 4th year neurosurgery sub-internship. I wish I had known about it sooner! For medical students hoping to match into neurosurgery, 4th year clinical rotation in neurosurgery is very important. You are expected to have some basic (sometimes, more advanced) knowledge of the field despite the fact you do not get a formal training in neurosurgery during your first 2 years of medical school. This means that students serious about pursuing neurosurgery should study on their own to acquire the student-level knowledge to perform well--and this book gives you just that, the "fundamentals" as it promises. The Greenberg is considered the bible for neurosurgery trainees, but it was originally written for neurosurgery residents. Although still a very good book and comprehensive, students can easily get lost if trying to read the Greenberg from cover to cover. Compared to Greenberg, this book is nicely condensed and easier to digest for med students. The author clearly understands the struggles of medical students and selected the most important content. It also fits in white coat pockets(!) and great to carry around on rotation. This was a great plus for me as most other books do not fit! This book also has great illustrations and tables. Even for 1st/2nd year medical students who won't be starting clerkships anytime soon, I would still recommend this book because the practical advice section is highly useful for career planning. Enjoy! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #1,184,876 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #140 in Neurosurgery (Books) #381 in Neurology (Books) #976 in Medical Education & Training (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (166) | | Dimensions | 5 x 1 x 8 inches | | Edition | 1st | | ISBN-10 | 1626238227 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1626238220 | | Item Weight | 1.3 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 432 pages | | Publication date | November 1, 2018 | | Publisher | Thieme | ## Images ![Neurosurgery Fundamentals - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61I2TBaX00L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic resource for med students interested in neurosurgery *by A***E on September 25, 2021* I'm applying into neurosurgery residency in a year and I bought this book during my clerkship year.

It takes a thoughtful, progressive approach in teaching trainees the subtle nuances of what it takes to be a great neurosurgery resident and neurosurgeon. It incorporates a broad array of knowledge from true leaders in the field but also gives the ground-level perspective from high-performing residents. I have used this book numerous times as a neurosurgery resident to prepare for OR cases, ICU rotations, and on-call shifts. Moreover, my opinions and sentiments have been shared by my co-residents alike. In sum, this is a practical, concise, affordable book that will benefit any medical student or neurosurgical trainee. ## Frequently Bought Together - Neurosurgery Fundamentals - Greenberg’s Handbook of Neurosurgery - Clinical Neuroanatomy Made Ridiculously Simple: Color Edition --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/121825391-neurosurgery-fundamentals](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/121825391-neurosurgery-fundamentals) --- *Product available on Desertcart Great Britain* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-04-29*
