- W1998995405 abstract "Hubert H. Fernandez, MD, Stephan Eisenschenk, MD, Anthony T. Yachnis, MD, and Michael S. Okun, MD. Demos Medical Publishing, LLC, New York, 2006. ISBN: 1-888799-91-9, $79.95. Scope: This book targets those preparing for the neurology board examination, a written and oral examination. The oral examination will be phased out in 2009. The book provides a brief overview of the content of the oral examination and practical tips on preparing for it and taking it. The lion's share of the book is directed to dispensing information appropriate for the written examination. As the goal is to present many facts with minimal text, the authors use outline form. The alternative source for such a review is a book by Geyer et al, which is even more telegraphic. This book provides more context for the “pearls.” The chapters are thematically organized. Standard clinical topics and clinical neurophysiology are covered in the first half of the text. The second half addresses pediatric neurology, psychiatry, brief treatments of some neurology-related subspecialties, and several basic neuroscience topics identified by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology as featured areas of examination. Some chapters are minimalistic in their outline presentation, whereas others are so detail-packed that they take on a paragraph-like feel. Most are in between, with a recognizable outline format that occasionally blossoms into sentences or near sentences when the author wishes to stress an important point or provide additional context. There is a companion Web site for this book, which offers computerized “flash cards” and abbreviated clinical vignettes. The Web site material also doubles as a self-test section. Strengths: This book touches on a huge body of information in a well-organized fashion. The Web site resource is particularly useful, especially for illustrations. Weaknesses: As with most outline-formatted review books, the staccato presentation neither transports the reader nor provides enough context to provide true understanding of the facts presented. But this book is not meant to serve as a primary source of learning, rather it serves as a review of previously learned material. The reader will not be able to rely on this book as a thorough review. For example, neuroradiology and neuropathology are not addressed. Inaccurate or mistaken information is occasionally presented. Recommended Audience: Board-eligible neurologists looking for a big-picture review of information encountered during their residency will appreciate this book. Others who may benefit from this book include neurologists planning to take their 10-year recertification examination. Neurology residents preparing for their in-service examination would benefit from a read-through. Critical Appraisal: This book is a compromise between a neurology house officer's survival guide and a detailed review outline. Those who like either type of book will want to check this one out. It can certainly help consolidate previously acquired information. Trainees with large areas of knowledge deficits will need a more comprehensive and intensive approach to prepare adequately for the board examination. Russell H.
