Memorable Neurology

I wish I had this book in medical school! This book has filled so many gaps in my knowledge of neurology. It finally helped me to make sense of the clinical relevance of neuroanatomy as patients presents. There were so many “ah ha” moments . I actually looked forward to reading it . Great refresher!

After reading and loving Dr. Heldt’s other book, Memorable Psychopharmacology (twice! Cover to cover!) and struggling with other neuro anatomy books that shall not be named, I decided to get this book and I am so glad. If you’re like me and the thought of neuro anatomy sends you into a cold sweat or gives you flashbacks of sleepless nights in med school, this is the book you need. Dr. Heldt’s friendly, casual tone actually makes reading about neurons interesting. He uses mnemonics, memory tricks, and little silly images in his books that help with recalling the information for tests and even includes practice questions. I really cannot recommend this book enough.

I wish that this was available when I was in grad school. Well done.

As a soon to be Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I wanted to be sure I had helpful texts to easily describe basic neurobiology and remain knowledgable about neurology as it applies to the psychiatry field. I have found this text extremely helpful. Neurobiology can be dense... and honestly, I feel it can be confusing, but this text breaks it down into easy-to-understand sections and helpful pneumonics. I cannot think of any cons to this book currently. I definitely would recommend it to others!

Helpful, pertinent information. Great addition to textbooks for studying.
