Summary
This highly regarded second edition title provides medical students with the information to build skills that will aid them in studying for any level of their board exams. It also prepares students with the ability to look at a patients neurological signs and symptoms, to logically think through the various tracts, and to determine where a lesion is located. Fully updated and greatly expanded in content (with a new, handy neuroanatomy atlas as well), this gold-standard textbook specifically fills a gap in the literature for medical students studying for their board exams and those about to go on a neuro-related rotation. Written by a renowned professor with over 25 years of teaching experience specific to board exam preparation, chapters are crafted with the goal of aiding students in understanding concepts by explaining the reasoning behind signs and symptoms, rather than pure memorization. In addition to the new neuroanatomy atlas in this edition, the book again offers 100 high-yield neuroanatomy key phrases along with a cross secition of images with lesion test questions. Medical Neuroanatomy for the Boards and the Clinic, 2nd Edition, is the comprehensive, go-to book for students seeking a practical yet nuanced reference for board exam preparation.
