Why this book
A patient’s description of a change in memory, movement, or behavior can raise questions that draw on both psychiatry and neurology. This ninth edition helps readers connect what they know about brain anatomy with what they observe during a neurological exam. It is written for readers who want to understand why a neurological finding matters in a psychiatric setting.
For psychiatry residents, the book offers a way to organize board review around clinical questions. Topics include seizures, headaches, and movement disorders, along with the psychiatric symptoms that can accompany neurological illness. As you study, you can use the illustrations to revisit anatomy, then work through multiple-choice questions to see which topics need another look. Practicing psychiatrists can also use the text to refresh their knowledge of examination findings and the conditions behind them.
What you'll learn
- Connect neuroanatomy with findings on a neurological exam
- Review neurological disorders that can affect behavior
- Identify topics to revisit when studying seizures and movement disorders
- Use practice questions to identify gaps in your review
Not the right book for: Readers looking for an introductory psychology textbook or a general guide to mental health.
