Editorial Reviews

Reviewer: yossri a ashour, md(University of Illinois at Chicago College of Medicine)
Description: This manual presents a unique approach to the scientific background needed for those in the field of neurology.
Purpose: The purpose is to provide a quick review of a comprehensive textbook of neurology by the same authors, Adams and Victor's Principles of Neurology, 7th edition, (McGraw-Hill, 2001) - one that can easily be carried in a pocket. Most neurologists need something like this and the book is done well.
Audience: The manual is written primarily for students, but I think it will be welcomed by all who work in the field of neurology. The authors are credible authorities.
Features: The book deals with the necessary principles of neurology without going into detail. This format is very valuable for a quick review.
Assessment: The book is useful as a second tier resource to the larger textbooks that deal with the practical aspects of neurology. It also is helpful as a quick review of the original textbook.
