Book Reviews of BRS Neuroanatomy (Board Review Series)
Book Review: Good book but not an easy read!
Summary: 3 Stars
Even though this is a great book, it is not a great book for a beginner. Like most, I became interested in the BRS series after physiology, and I decided to use this book for neuroanatomy. This book is not as easy to read. It is extremely dense reading that is cut and dry. I found myself using the glossary in the back of the book every other sentence to look up terms used all through the book (ex: dysdiadochokinesia , ataxia, dystonia,etc). It makes reading each chapter very time consuming for a beginner. However, this book does have a good side. Using lecture materials along with this book gave me just enough information to understand it. Additionally, this book is very concise. It will cover just about everything well. I also used it extensively as a reference. In the end, I had a decent experience with this book, but I think that I would have been happier with another source that presented material in a format easier to read. So, the moral of the story is: If you are acquainted with the subject, this is a great book. Otherwise, look for an easier source to learn the material first. Just as a side note, the BRS and high yield neuroanatomy books are written by the same author, and a couple of my friends seemed happier with the high yield book.
Summary of BRS Neuroanatomy (Board Review Series)

Over 600 USMLE-style questions with complete answers and explanations are included, some at the end of each chapter and some in an end-of-book Comprehensive Examination.
This edition uses color to delineate neuroanatomical pathways and highlight clinical correlations. New clinical MRI and MRA images have been added. Questions follow the clinical vignette-based format of the current USMLE.
