Reviews

"This book is masterful in many respects, but mostly in its ability to present information in a way that makes learning enjoyable. It does not go into micro detail on all of the nervous system diseases, but serves as a good review. Taken together, the two volumes would be a good addition to the bookshelf of any neurologist, healthcare professional, or medical student."-Andrea Harriott, MD, PhD(Mayo Clinic Florida) Doody Review: 86/100
