History of the Treatment of Spinal Injuries (PDF)

`In this book Dr Silver who has devoted his life to the treatment of spinal injuries achieves a unique balance of historical perspective and neurological expertise... Dr Silver worked with Dr Guttmann for four years and so developed the expertise to become the Consultant in charge of the Liverpool Regional Paraplegic Centre... I can commend this book highly both to neurologists and to students of medical history.'
From the Foreword by Sir Roger Bannister

This was a thoroughly good read which I would recommend to anyone with an interest in spinal cord injury.

This book deserves a honoured position on the shelf of medical history and will be a stimulus to every doctor who is excited by the challenge of conditions for which no cure is currently available.
