An interesting look at neurosurgery, with some stories being happy, some sad, but all fascinating.

Tales of Neurosurgery is filled with bits and pieces of neurosurgery training life, cases and stories that will make one cry, and great life lessons while maintaining an appropriately funny and satirical tone. Very entertaining and insightful at the same time!
I think this book is impressive for some people who have not encountered the medical system but as someone who has, both as a patient and a healthcare worker, this author is almost stereotypical in his behavior: arrogant, ill-tempered, and crude.
This man who has a decades long career in medicine can’t even get the basic job titles of his coworkers right, and honestly seems to have based his role in some of these stories off of Greys anatomy. I have NEVER seen a code where all of the work was being done by medical students and residents- yes they play an important role but RNs and Allied health might as well not exist to this guy.
I had to stop at the chapter on neurologists- I work with several that I have literally sent my own family members to because I trust them so much. This authors beliefs are the antithesis of modern, and well practiced, medicine.
I can’t even get into the pain chapter, less I produce an aneurysm and find myself in the hands of someone like this joker.
