This practical guide offers an accessible introduction to clinical neurology. No prior knowledge of the subject is required-the essential concepts are concisely explained and clearly illustrated. History-taking, the clinical examination and ancillary testing are thoroughly discussed. CT and MR images support the descriptions of findings, while useful tables provide an at-a-glance reference for a wide range of symptoms and differential diagnoses.
