Publication dates of forthcoming books often slip. We move each title into the main list once it is out.

Publishing a spine book?

Authors, editors and publishers can send us details of a new spine title and we will consider it for the next update, free of charge. Listings are not paid for and we do not sell placements. Email: spinalfrontiers@nspine.com

How we compile this page

What we listBooks on spine surgery in all its subspecialties, plus spine textbooks that a spine surgeon or spine team would use: imaging, biomechanics, anaesthesia and neuromonitoring, interventional pain, rehabilitation and spinal cord medicine. Atlases, handbooks, case books and exam-preparation books count. A book qualifies if its first edition or a new edition comes out in 2026.
What we leave outReprints and paperback re-issues of older editions, general orthopaedic or neurosurgical books with only a chapter or two on the spine, journal supplements, congress abstract books and self-help books for patients.
HowEach month we search the catalogues of the major medical publishers and the main book trade listings, in English, German and other European languages. We open each publisher's page to confirm the date, edition and ISBN. Where we could not, the entry says so. Summaries are in our own words.
Not reviewsA listing tells you that a book exists and what it covers. It is not a review or a recommendation. We show no prices, because they change and differ by country, and we earn nothing if you buy.
Not comprehensiveSmall publishers and books in languages other than English and German are hard to find in catalogues, and publication dates often move. Each update replaces the previous version of this page and adds the titles that appeared since.
