BRS Neuroanatomy PDF

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.

Others have really nailed their reviews. If I was a neuro professor, this might be a great book for me. But there's simply too much detail for the typical med student to bother caring about - especially with a course such as neuro, for which a thorough conceptual understanding of the subject is way more important than knowing every little detail.

I switched to other materials toward the end of the course, and that's what I'll be using for the board. If you're really into (read: obsessed with) neuro, this might be the book for you.
