Neurology Textbook:
Good textbook for Neurology registrars. Written by only two authors it gives the text a more consistent approach compared to other texts.

Good information but very judgemental:
Good information but the authors put their own 2 cents in when it would better if they would remain objective. To me that was not very professional.
Not my kind of book:
This book is packed with excellent information, but such info is very hard to extract. The style is verbose, and there is no way to differentiate what is mandatory to know from what is advisable to know to what is impermissible not to know. Because of this poor design, it is almost useless unless you already know the topic pretty well. If you are specializing in the topic, buy it. If you are planning to buy this as your first clinical neurology book, find something else.
Excellent Book:
Detailed book in Neurology. This book is wealth of new information and researches in Neurology. I would recommend this book for who is interested in Neurology as reference and text book.
