‘Ballance was a skilled surgeon and, in this book on brain surgery, sets forth many ideas that were quite modern for their day. The book contains a series of three lectures on cerebral membranes, tumors, and abscesses which he prepared for the Lettsomian lectures of the Medical Society of London in 1906.' (Heirs).
