Clinical Neuroanatomy Made Ridiculously Simple

Recommend for easy recall aids

I used this book to help me out with a neuroanatomy postgrad course, with no prior background in the subject. A few of the concepts were simple enough to understand without background knowledge, but for the most part it worked best to read the course text, listen to the lectures, then read the relevant material here to get a nice simplified breakdown, then go to Ackland's (over and over). This was not a 'for dummies' type book but did help me to pass and fills the giant void of simplified neuro texts. I didn't use the extra cd but heard from other students that it was quite useful. I'd like to give it 4 stars, since it's by no means a perfect breakdown, but need to give 5 because it's really the only one of its kind.

love these books. Well thought out and easy to understand. Got this one for my teen for her AP Psych class. it was very helpful.

This is a a very good book and also an expensive one. Usually one, two or even the four cornes of the book suffer a lot in the delivery. There should be a policy for the shipment of books that ensures that the book arrives to its destination in the best condition posible. Or better yet, in mint condition, especially when you are buying something new. I would have wanted that the book would have arrived in better shape and not with wrinkles in the cover and in some pages. It is not a damage that makes worth the inconvenience of filing a complaint but I sure expected better Maybe a corner protector made of thick recyclable paper, cardboard or carton could be used

I am a current medical student and ordered this book to assist me through some neuroanatomy/neuroophthalmology courses. This book does a great job of providing an easy to read and well laid out explanation of the different structures and functions in the nervous system. Of course, this book does not cover every detail, so it is a good idea to cross reference your textbooks, etc to further understand the subject matter. However, I think this book aids in building a strong foundation in a subject that can be rather complex and challenging. The only thing that I noticed that was a “problem/flaw” was that one of the pages had some printing that appeared smudged or streaked. Thankfully it is still readable and really does not take away from the experience.

I love this book. I am a clinical phase physician assistant student rotating in vascular neurology. This was a great reference for quick facts and recall. It’s not a large book, so it obviously isn’t in extensive detail about everything but it has a good background. Neurology is a high level concept and is difficult to teach yourself from a book. I think Goldberg did a great job, especially in this edition.

So I stink at visualization and taking neuroanatomy has been a lesson in humility. I've tried websites and at least four other books to help my brain do a little better because I pretty much expect A's of myself. This book was the first one to REALLY make things stick and simple enough that I could build on. I showed it to a classmate and she loved it enough to buy a copy for herself. It's not going to fill in all the gory details, but this will get you a great start and break it down into terms easy enough for a layperson.

The software disc that comes included is pretty helpful. This book is a good review for the neurology wards. It definitely needs to be used as a review along with other more detailed texts. The author writes it simple and easy to understand. At times it feels juvenile, but that's the point. Ridiculously simple. It is accurate. It is helpful. I appreciate this text and I would recommend it if you need a review.

Recomendado para quem quer entender de um jeito simples.

I like that this book doesn't waste too much time on basics. It is a great supplement to my med school materials. The best part is the pages of possible lesions and their presentations at the back of the book. I have been told by our school instructors that if you know all those lesions, you really know all the possible ones that you could be examined on.

Donde está el CD que dice que trae para que sea " interactivo" ? estoy sorprendida de que no trae lo que anuncia . Espero respuestas

Excellent book!

O CD veio sem funcionar, muito chato isso. O livro é ótimo, mas isso do CD foi decepcionante. Isso é tudo.
