AN ECONOMIST BOOK OF THE YEAR 'A gripping investigation of Israel's assassination policy' Sunday Times 'Remarkable' Observer 'Riveting' Daily Mail 'Compelling' John le Carré Winner of 2018 National Jewish Book Award Rise and Kill First is the definitive book to read on Israel's military history. From the very beginning of its statehood in 1948, the instinct to take every measure to defend the Jewish people has been hardwired into Israel's DNA. This is the riveting inside account of the targeted assassinations that have been used countless times, on enemies large and small, sometimes in response to attacks against the Israeli people and sometimes pre-emptively. Rise and Kill First counts their successes, failures and the moral and political price exacted on those who carried out the missions which have shaped the Israeli nation, the Middle East and the entire world.

Recent developments in our understanding of the complex anatomy of the cranial base and the biological behaviour of tumours in this area have brought with them a significant improvement in the outcome of patients with skull base tumours. To provide clinicians from different disciplines a doorway to this field, the contributors present a systemic introduction and summary of contemporary knowledge in skull base surgery, without requiring prior information in the field. The book has three major parts: (i) clinical, pathological and radiological management of patients, (ii) open and endoscopic surgical approaches to the skull base, and (iii) outcome, morbidity and postoperative follow-up of patients.
