5 Star reviews of the first edition:

"I just did my pre-clinical exam on neurology and found this textbook to be immensely helpful. Would definitely recommend it for medical students."  Amazon reviewer

"I really like the eureka series for highlighting the fundamental things to learn as a medical student – just enough depth and not too complicated. The case studies are really useful if you haven’t met a patient clinically with the condition or symptoms - gives you something to pin your knowledge on." Amazon reviewer

"Really enjoyed this book, it was easy to read and explained really clearly how to carry out neurological exams. I especially found the bit on cranial nerves very helpful." Amazon reviewer

"Concise book with great cases to start off each chapter and useful diagrams and tables to conceptualise complex classifications and concepts. Combines decent amount of physiology when explaining investigations and approach to managing and understanding conditions." Amazon reviewer
