Written for those with little pre-existing neurological knowledge the book is structured in an easy to follow style, starting with chapters on clinical presentations, followed by neuro-anatomy and physiology, and ending with the major neurological disorders, with basic science included where appropriate.
Simon Ellis has many years of experience of teaching both medical students and trainee doctors the basics of neurology. By the end of Clinical Neurology:: essential concepts, readers will have the knowledge to competently manage the neurological patient and be able to demonstrate that knowledge to any examiner!
