3.0 out of 5 stars Read it for "fun", September 30, 2002

This review is from: Neurology Secrets, 3e (Paperback)

This is not a reference text by any means. It is a quick question and answer approach to neurology. This book is best read by those who already know some neurology and want to gain some additional knowledge. Some things seem trivial, others practical. Probably not a good book for students or 1st year residents in neuro.
