To Sir Ludwig Gutman, who personally changed medicine’s attitude
and approach toward catastrophic spine injuries, thus opening the
door for innovative concepts of reconstructing traumatic spine
injuries. Sir Gutman was knighted for his work with injured soldiers
during World War II.
The editors also dedicate this book to their families for their
continuous support and understanding of the time and energy
involved in treating spine injury patients.
