| Abstract
|
:
|
This first and second year medical school textbook provides a single text for the medical student to learn neuroanatomy, neurophysiology, neuropathology and clinical neurology. Key features of this volume include: *up-to-date methodology and techniques; *case studies and problem solving questions in each chapter designed for weekly discussion groups or courses entirely on neurological history and examination.
