Final giveaway

Two giveaways: an easy one and a challenging one.  Giveaways are limited to addresses within North America.  Previous winners cannot win duplicate prize.  No purchase necessary, void where prohibited, don't text and drive... you know the drill. 

The easy one
The 5th person to email me at editor@grgraphics.com with the words "BURR HOLE" in the subject line wins a free copy of the 7th edition of the Handbook of Neurosurgery.  The 4th and 6th respondents will each receive a T-Shirt (ooh - so close).

The challenging one
If you click on my photo under the "About Me" sidebar on this blog, you will see some books on the shelf behind me that are in soft focus.  At least two of the books can be identified by the astute viewer. The first person to correctly identify the 2 books (title and author) will win a free copy of the 7th edition of the Handbook of Neurosurgery.  Email your responses to editor@grgraphics.com.  The contest will close at midnight eastern time on Tuesday, March 23, 2010 - if there are no winners by that time, the prize will be awarded to what I judge to be the best response.   Hints may be posted on this blog prior to the contest close if there is not already a winner.  Good luck - I hope this is a fun challenge.

  1. We have a winner for the BURR HOLE response.

    There are a lot of close ones for the books, you guys are very sharp! But no one is exactly right, yet. Here is a hint: The silver/gray jacketed book is not "Brain Surgeon" by Keith Black - but that is close. Keep trying, you can resubmit answers.

  2. The gray/silver book is a little harder than I thought. Everyone seems to have figured out the main title, but the subtitle is a little more intimate. You may have to look at photos of hardcover editions on Amazon.

    The other book seems to have been easier. Most people have gotten it right, but there have been a few air balls.
