The Best Place to Start
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
This great book, although somewhat dated, is the best place to start for any psychiatrist or neurologist wishing to add cognitive testing to their clinical examination. I have written several papers on the topic, developed and published my own mental status examination, and this book was my starting point. If you can find it, get it.
Updated Classic
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
Recommended by a veteran neurologist, who had used an earlier edition as a neurology resident. He reviewed this edition and found it to be as solid as ever, with updated info on neuropsych and neuroimaging. As a psych resident, I found it extremely useful in that it correlates organic brain insults with neuropsych findings. Well written, concise, well illustrated.
very useful for trainees in psychiatry
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
Mental status examination in neurology (cognitive tests,lobe function tests etc)is often a source of worry for trainees in psychiatry. Traditional psychiatric text books donot address this important aspect of psychiatry and trainers (who oftenthemselves neglected this) add to trainees confusion.This classic book clearly addresses this problem by detailing every test and its clinical application in a simple language.Iam sure every reader would emerge confident with clear concepts after reading this book.
