The main objective of this monograph is to provide the anatomical basis for neurologic abnormalities. Knowledge of basic clinical neuroanatomy will enable medical students to answer the first question asked when examining a patient with an injured or diseased nervous system: “where is the lesion located?” This monograph is neither a reference
book nor a textbook of neuroanatomy. Most neuroanatomy text books include much information about anatomical structures that aids in the understanding of a particular system or mechanism, but when these structures are damaged, clinical signs or symptoms do not result. Such superfluous information is kept to a minimum in this book.

The subtitle of this book might well have been “A guide for those perplexed about their bowels.” It is not designed to be a textbook of medicine for laypersons, but a guide that informs them about the common disorders of the lower intestinal tract, offers ways of coping with these disorders, and suggests approaches to prevention.

This book is a result of papers contributed by various players in the public library sector from various countries of the world. The papers were contributed against a background of a very comprehensive account by Max Broome on the development of national policy for public libraries and its financial implications. Some concluding threads were drawn together by Neil Simpson using the four themes of the current global economic situation, new technology, users, and the need for measurement. The papers specifically addressed a variety of means of coping with the problem of retrenchment and exploring the ways in which research or investigation might help the public librarian in the task of what one American at least has called “Creative decline management.”
