The book equips neurologists and psychiatrists at all levels of training with the up-to-date knowledge required for both certification and recertification exams. Chapters are written in an easy-to-follow outline format that facilitates study and retention. This edition's new co-author, Paul R. Carney, MD, provides greatly expanded coverage of pediatric neurology in each chapter. Coverage of pain disorders--including headache, complex regional pain syndromes, and radiculopathy--has also been expanded. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Neurology for the Boards 3rd EditionIt was less explanatory than I thought. It is a TRUE review book which assumes you know all this massive material and just lists it out in a nice format. Rating: - No focus - too much informationThis book - basically a large outline of neurology topics - is too broad, without focus and not an ideal way to prepare for the boards (even though it seems to be the most popular book out there). I used some of the old Rite exam questions and a few question/answer books as well - much more helpful. Rating:  - Lots of bones- not much meatThis book is pretty much just an outline of neurology topics without much information/detail. It's not a book to "read" or even to prepare you, it might be useful as a book to identify areas you need to review. I didn't find it very useful for specialty board or in-service exam review. Rating:  - 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 Rating: - concise, but incomplete and sometimes inaccurate informationThis book contains some high yield topics for the Neurology boards, but it is incomplete. There is a large number of important topics not included in this book. I am unable to find a great deal of difference between the two editions. Most disturbing is the number of mistakes that I have picked up by reviewing other texts as I was going through the book, some very obvious and not corrected in the second edition. This book is a good investment, but should not be the only reference used for studying ... Read More
