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.

I'm a UCSF Dental student. We're going through our Neurology II block currently and all the professors that teach Neuro highly recommended buying the book (what student buys books these days when they're all on PDF...). They said things like "oh its so good and concise and easy to read and has all the necessary information and you'll be using it forever..." Not the case

If you already know your Neuro decently well (which I thankfully do), this book is great as it definitely refreshes your memory quick and builds upon what you know. It does a good job at giving you the bigger picture. If you're a beginner to the world of Neuro, I urge you to stay away from this book as it is very much written in the language of Neurology rather than in a way to teach a beginner.

For what we're using it for, its in complete excess. That being said, it will be a book I keep on my very VERY small shelf of books. The information inside is not stuff that can be easily and accurately found on the internet (or wiki). If I need to look something up such as a condition or a mechanism, its excellent. It may even spark my interest to learn more about certain topics.

Bottom line:
this is not a very good 'teaching' book as it is a very dense read and heavily based in the language of Neurology. its a book for those that already know general Neurology. Highly informative and well written. A VERY good reference book as it DEFINITELY contains "Essential Neuroscience" knowledge that any MD/DDS/OMFS should have an idea about.
