Volume 58, Number 2

About the Cover Dr. Silliman took a photograph similar to the view shown on this issue’s cover, while visiting Goosenecks State Park in Utah. It shows the San Juan River “outlining” each side of a rocky butte that rises dramatically between other striking rock formations. With a photographer’s eye, Dr. Silliman saw the scene and was awed by its natural wonder, so he captured the digital image with his camera. However, his neurologist’s mind envisioned more. He said, “The butte in the middle of the horseshoe river bend reminds me of a brain with the cervical segment of the spinal cord attached.”
