Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Much of what I need while On Call
Excellent, very usefull and user friendly. Does not waste your time when you need to find information in a crisis. Not all inclusive but has all the big stuff and many of the weird and interesting things you will see in Neurology.

In my work as a medical writer and editor, I still refer to it often.
Rating: - Best friend on call
This is a handy handbook that quickly becomes indispensible when you are a junior resident on call. It helps you learn how to organize your though process in a logical, systematic manner. It covers all the neurological emergencies. Overall, it is quite useful for the neurologist in training.

The setting we all had in mind was a busy emergency ... Read More
Rating: - A must-have for a med student on neurology
I am a medical student who plans on becoming a neurologist, and I carry this book with me just to have a quick reference to clinical information about the major categories of neurological disease. The book is broken down by presentation (eg ataxia, weakness, coma, tremor) and gives a quick overview that can be skimmed in 2 minutes, and gives specific management advice.
The book doesn't give comprehensive info about any topics, but it isn't meant to...it's just the best way to make your way through ... Read More
