Concise Neurology

This compact neurology guide is written for practicing clinicians, fellows, residents, and medical students who need to cover a broad field quickly. The second edition has been substantially rewritten to reflect recent progress in the field, while keeping the original approach of giving each topic a page or two that can be scanned in minutes.

Nearly every subject a neurology trainee or practitioner might look up is included, with attention to how each syndrome or disease is diagnosed and treated. Topics are ordered by how often they arise in clinical work, and related entries are grouped so that a reader moving from page to page keeps a sense of the whole subject.

The authors write in an accessible voice, adding practical tips and their own explanations of concepts that often confuse learners. Each page ends with a brief summary of its key points, which suits readers working with limited time between patients.
