MUST BUY !

Excellent preparatory material for the Neurology Boards, put together by a distinguished panel of Neurology Chief Residents. Recommend to anybody interested in taking part-I of the Neurology Boards. If you are interested in Neurology Board review software, two softwares to consider are Neurology Boards 1.0 (for part-1 of the Neurology Boards) and Neurology Tutor 1.0 (for part-2 of the Neurology Boards). Both softwares are freely downloadable from www.peakdoctor.org

Crammed full of Neurology

This is a review book for Neurology. It is written in an outline form. It tries to be comprehensive, but fails to review any psychology (which is 33-40% of the boards). It has some nice tables and basic schematics, but no real illustrations or pictures of imaging. Since there are no real review books aside from this one, it fills the void well.

Neurology for the boards

There is a second edition of this book avilable in the market with some chapters revised and some new ones added, released in 2002. you don't take the risk of going to the boards inadequately prepared or with older information.

Excellent review text!

This book is an excellent review text for the neurology in-service exam, board exam or re-certification exam. Additionally, it is helpful as a quick reference for neurologic conditions. I highly recommend it.

Great for Neurology Boards

Boards are zebras in action and no one deals with 'common topics' anymore. This book, therefore, emphasizes the commonly uncommon that need to be crammed just for the exams.
