I was skeptical buying this book, because it isn't tried and tested like many of the other books for a medical student neurology rotation. To my surprise, I found this book such an easy read, that I was able to get through most of it within a week, and my knowledge had improved dramatically because the book provides a good context for apportioning useful bits of information. Unlike Blueprints, or Lange Neurology that most students recommend, this book lays out the foundations of Neurology in a manner that's so easy to learn. It makes thinking about neurological problems fluid, and intuitive. I also like the style the book is written -- it flows well, and it not disjointed. Definitely a keeper!

I found this book to be a great review of all the neuro I had forgotten since first year. It is clinically oriented and it includes a good run down on the neurological exam. Other books tend to cover just the exam and little else or they cover too much esoteric information. This is a good blend of both. It's also about 5.5 x 8.5 inches so it will fit in a lab coat pocket, something only a med student would care about. Overall a good resource for a clerkship.

This is a short and concise book for the boards and for the novice in the neurology clinic. I liked the examination chapter and the snippets at the beginning of each chapter.

thanks for the book, it really helped in my rotation and it was in good condition, not to mention you saved me money.
