With over 800 illustrations, the majority in full color, Clinical Neurology reflects the major contribution of neuroradiology to medical neurology and combines the advantages of a color atlas and a textbook. Each condition is described on a page or a spread of pages, using a structured text and integrating color photographs, radiographs, and line diagrams.

The book is both comprehensive and practical, with material organized according to the presenting complaint of the patient or according to a logical pathophysiologic and anatomic classification scheme. For each disorder there is a clear definition, discussion of etiology, clinical features, and investigations. The text is concise and, where appropriate, a bulleted topic format is used, making information easy to retrieve. High-quality illustrations present anatomic drawings, radiographs, and pathologic specimens. This approach logically leads the reader through different clinical scenarios from presentation to diagnosis and treatment.

Review

From the Back Cover

The authors combine the advantages of a colour atlas and a textbook. Each condition is described on a page or spread of pages, using highly structured text and integrated colour photos, radiographs and line diagrams. While emphasising more common conditions, the book is comprehensive, yet concise, and should become the standard quick reference guide to recognition and management of neurological problems.
