Customer Reviews

Good introduction

It is a good brief introduction to Neurology, applicable more toward students and non neurology residents. It has five chapters: Basic, H & P, Investigation, Problemes, then Syndromes and Diseases, organized in topics, each conatins high quality tables, graphs, images, and a simple text rich in helpfull, to the point information. Being only 130 pages will allow reader to finish in short time making it a good prepartion before neuoroly rotation.

An excellent basic neurology text

I was looking for a simple yet professional presentation of neurology for students in a electroneurodiagnostic training program that I organizing. Drs Fuller and Manford have well balanced text and illustrations that quickly convey difficult information. I am impressed with the logical layout and high quality drawings and pictures. It covers the major aspects of neurology briefly which is about the right degree of depth for medical students, allied health students and junior residents. I will have my students use it to work-up cases in our department.
