Clinical Neuroanatomy Made Ridiculously Simple (3rd Edition; Book & CD-ROM) Editorial Review: This now-classic text presents the most relevant points in clinical neuroanatomy with mnemonics, humor and case presentations. The book now includes and interactive CD with a lab section, 3D rotations, interactive anatomy, tutorial on neurologic localization, and quiz. Third edition.
Customer Reviews: Not for anyone in a neuropsychiatry field... This is a great book for basic neuroanatomy but not much more. Not useful for anyone trying to study the psychiatric aspects of neuroanatomy but would be invaluable for the beginning neurology student.
As Advertised This book is PERFECT for anyone in the medical field who wants to shave off all the fat regarding clinical neuroanatomy.
This book is meant to be used as a supplemental study tool and not as a primary source for information. For those overwhelmed by the extreme detail of scientific neuroanatomy, this book gives a simplistic overview of what is critical information as well as a guide of subjects to focus on when reading for detail with a primary source.
Of the Made Ridiculously Simple books I have read, I think this one is the best (including the famous Microbiology Made Ridiculously Simple).
The schematics in the book are perfect diagrams for what to look at in actual CT/MRI cross and sagittal sections, more of which can be found on the CD-Rom
While I do wish it had a little more details of the pathway circuits and neurotransmitters involved, the point of the book is to eliminate all of those details.
It may not be comprehensive, but it comes very very close.
it really is ridiculously simple I had to get this book for class, and I only found it slightly useful. I had some problems in class understanding the different spinothalamic tracks, and I went to this book when nothing else was making sense. It did help me finally understand that whole part of neuroanatomy, however it probably took me an hour to get all the useful information from the book and 30 min to do the CD. (The CD was helpful but not nearly enough.) Basically, it was a very good opening book when I was confused, but I quickly had to turn to High Yield to actually learn something.
Excelent summary The book is an excrelent summary especially useful for first or second u=year sutidents of medice
Great reference book I'm in the process of preparing for neuropsych boards and this book has been a great reference for me. It helps explain concepts so that they are easier to retain for later recall. I recommend this book for anyone studying for boards or will be working with students and residents.
