Injuries of the Brain and Spinal Cord and Their Coverings

Editor:

Samuel Brock. Bailliere, Tindall & Cox

This large volume of some 800 pages is a symposium from the pens of twenty-eight contributors. This is the third edition and includes much information gained from the study of head injuries in wartime. Several chapters are devoted to psychotic states and neuroses following head injuries, and an interesting chapter deals with malingering in relation to injuries of the brain, containing much information on the differential diagnosis between hysterical paralysis and malingering.

Each chapter is followed by a comprehensive bibliography. This book is likely to be a valuable reference book for many years. A.T.
