The definitive textbook on neurology, the one neurologists and neurosurgeons keep handy on their office bookshelf. Much more than the average person needs, but if you or someone in your family is diagnosed with a neurological syndrome, this is the place to look it up (I have used it in such situations many times).

Fairly comprehensive neurology textbook

I was wanting a kindle edition of a good neurology textbook for routine clinical use and reference. I have an old secondhand copy of a previous edition of this book so the 12th edition was an easy choice.

The kindle edition contains the 5000 or so pages but in a handy portable format. In terms of content it gives a fairly up to date overview of neurology. In my own sub specialist area I could point out a few omissions but for the general neurologist this is great.

Useful for trainees and senior neurologists.
