From Library Journal
People with spinal cord injuries caused by car accidents and other traumatic events have generally been considered hopeless cases destined to a life of paralysis. But in recent years, there have been dramatic advances in spinal cord regeneration research. Medical journalist Vikhanski (An Informed Patient's Guide to Breast Surgery) presents a history of this research and provides insight into current developments that may offer the paralyzed hope for the future. New treatments on the horizon include an immune therapy procedure that has been tested in Israel with human subjects and possibilities for mechanical neural prostheses. Vikhanski's writing is a little dry and perhaps too scientific for some general readers, but interested parties will have no problem keeping up. Including a helpful appendix of scientific terms, this is recommended for consumer health collections, rehabilitation hospitals, and large academic and public libraries.
