5 out of 5 stars A very comprehensive guide to Neuroscience   December 15, 2009

4 out of 4 found this review helpful

It is a terrific book of neuroscience. Other textbooks on market are either too brief on neurophysiology or dwell too much on the field biochemistry. The best thing about this book is that it touches on every aspects of neurology comprehensively and specifically catered for medical students. The arrangement is coherent and it is easy to follow the flow of the book, which explained each part of the nervous system by its afferent and efferent connections. Diagrams are adequate and the pathway are vividly illustrated.


5 out of 5 stars Spectacular overview of Neuroscience   August 12, 2009

This is a spectacular textbook. It is very well written and very easy to understand, unlike many similar texts. The first few chapters provided a very detailed and essential introduction and orientation for med school neurology, and the book as a whole proved to be a spectacular reference. I very strongly recommend this book! Also, check out the Netter's neurology flash cards. The cards are flimsy and cheap, and the info gets way too detailed at times, but the info on the back of the cards reinforces a number of very important concepts in a very concise manner.

This book has been wonderful for my graduate studies. The pictures and words are clearly written to understand the neurology aspect of science.
