Reviews
From the reviews:
“This is an excellent book covering the latest in the pathology, histology, animal models, and stem cell research regarding acute spinal cord damage. … There is a good audience to neurologists, neurosurgeons, research fellows, and medical students working in SCI Research. I highly recommend this book to all interested audiences.” (Joseph J. Grenier, Amazon.com, March, 2014)
