Neuro- Logic is a foundational text about localization in the nervous system-the fundamental skill of clinical neurology. Written in an easily understandable and entertaining expanded outline format, the book integrates basic neuroscience information, the art of neurological examination, and disease-based knowledge. Over 95 crystal-clear illustrations illuminate topography, anatomic relationships, and clinical concepts. The material in this book is field-tested, and evolved from a syllabus the authors developed over many years of teaching introductory neurology to medical students.
Having a logical method of the central nervous system, it takes visitors step-by-step in the fundamentals from the cerebral hemispheres and Brodmann areas to complex particulars about brainstem stroke syndromes, basal ganglia paths, and brachial/lumbosacral plexi. Additionally, it consists of a neuropsychiatry section going through the relationship of frontal lobes and psychological disorders, and features a section on special programs covering coma, epilepsy, movement, vertigo, cord compression, and autonomics. Compiled by famous nerve teachers, this concise primer assists students throughout school of medicine rotations, publish-graduate residency training, and medical practice throughout the long term learning task of evaluating patients with nerve problems. It's also a helpful aid for neurology citizens for looking at the fundamentals or planning for his or her Residency Operating Training Exam (RITE), as well as for physicians in related areas who wish to hone their nerve acumen.
