Description:
Derived from Harvey Cushing’s remarkable personal collection in the Brain
Tumor Registry, The Legacy of Harvey Cushing: Profiles of Patient Care presents a stunning historical account of Cushing’s surgical
cases and research from 1905 to 1930. This beautifully illustrated book features
800 of Cushing’s surgical drawings and photographs of patients and tumor
specimens. Preserved untouched for sixty years in the Yale University Library,
the images provide the earliest catalog of neurological and neuropathological
disease and reveal the techniques employed by the founder of modern
neurosurgery. The editors have carefully integrated these high-quality
photographs and illustrations into a compelling narrative constructed from
patients’ hospital records and Cushing’s meticulous notes at preoperative and
postoperative stages of management. Discharge notes, letters from the family of
patients, photographs of patients years after surgery, and death reports further
humanize each clinical case and speak to Cushing’s lasting dedication to his
patients. The book provides a glimpse of the extraordinary contribution that
both Cushing and his patients made to the progress of neurological surgery in
the twentieth century. This unique book will be prized by today’s generation of
neurological surgeons and neuropathologists. A co-publication of Thieme and the
American Association of Neurological Surgeons
