Reviews

“This is an excellent overview of a novel approach to noninvasive brain stimulation using transcranial magnetic fields. … The intended audience is neurosurgeons and neuroscientists. The book has basic information for those who are not familiar with the modality, and advanced information for its current users. Neurosurgical trainees, as well as clinicians from neighboring specialties (neurologists, physiatrists, speech therapists and electrophysiologists) may benefit from this book.” (Konstantin V. Slavin, Doody's Book Reviews, November, 2017)
