All About Brain Death explains in detail all aspects of brain death in a simplified QUESTION–ANSWER approach. Significantly, there is need to recognise brain death with utmost accuracy and urgency in view of the increased awareness in the community for an early diagnosis and the requirements of organ retrieval for transplantation. The author, a neurophysician and neurosurgeon with over 40 years’ experience, has compiled in this book the entire valuable information he has gained in the clinical practice. This book will be of immense value to undergraduate and postgraduate students of medicine, emergency medical officers, senior residents, intensivists, physicians, surgeons dealing with transplantation of organs,neurologists and neurosurgeons. The book will also be useful for the practitioners of law, judiciary, civil and hospital administrators, etc. in the light of the definitions and legal implications of brain death.
