5.0 out of 5 stars A Truly Great Book, December 13, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Clinical Neuroanatomy Made Ridiculously Simple (MedMaster Series) (Paperback)

Without question, this is one of the best books ever written for medical students or anyone else struggling through neurosciences. It miraculously removes the tedious details of this important topic and instead focuses on clinically relevant information in an effort to maximize understanding and minimize memorization. Despite the somewhat simplistic treatment of an otherwise complicated topic, the reader will finish this book with a complete working understanding of neuroanatomy, including a detailed and intimate knowledge of the spinal cord and brainstem. Really, there is no better book... and as a physician now I have returned to read it several more times since graduating from med school. If you don't have it... get it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Simple with a capital S., July 16, 1999

Prof Goldberg made a subject that has so far had the clarity of mud as clear as glass. I understand more after 2 days reading this book than I did after 2 months of lectures and labs.

4.0 out of 5 stars He is humorous, and so is the book, February 26, 1999

Dr. Goldberg gave us many lectures on neuroanatomy here in Miami. It was unusual if students didn't laugh during his lecture. He made the boring neuroanatomy really interesting. However, the quality of the pictures are very bad. This is most obvious disadvantage of this book. Also sometimes you will be attracted away by the funny stories about the anatomiacal structures. With the discription of the CN7 motor nerve pathway, I remembered the location of CN6 nucleus. But I simply couldn't remember which nerve sorrounds the CN6 nucleus on the midterm exam.
