CURRENT Diagnosis & Treatment Psychiatry, Second Edition (LANGE CURRENT Series) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I'm a medical doctor in my country (Brazil)and I am a general practitioner with a large experience in treating people with psychiatric problems.When I was a medical student my coleagues of university indicated the current books series.At that time this books was very cheap and after read my first book , current medical diagnosis and treatment , I begin to acquire other books of current series.
The hallmark of this series is to be cheap,concise and easy to read ( a very important feature for people of other countries where english is not the official language ).
This book has two parts. The first part is about theory of psychiatry with chapters about psycology , neurosciences , etc.
The second part is a well-writed and pratical text explaining all-over diseases covered in DSM-IV.
Each disease explanation begins with the corresponding DSM-IV criteria of diagnosis and includes diferential diagnosis,treatment and outcomes in a step-by-step mode which every medical professional can understand.
This book is a cost-effective investment.
I recomend too the other books of current series.

USMLE Road Map Neuroscience, Second Edition (LANGE USMLE Road Maps) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I had to struggle with neuroanatomy in my first year. To make things worse, some of the lecturers weren't exactly stellar. If I'd had this book earlier, I could have done way better in my tests. The organization of the book is logical, and the content is rich in that the important facts (i.e., those that are often asked in tests!) are summarized in an easy-to-read format. I've purchased all the USMLE Road Map books that have been released to date, and I have to say that this one stands out.

Neuroanatomy: Text and Atlas Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is one of several books I bought while in med school studying neuroscience. This is a beautiful text, with wonderful drawings, good use of catscans and MRIs, and an excellent layout. It helped me considerably to learn the anatomy of the spinal cord and brain. Since I am deaf and they couldn't deal with it in a classroom (looking down at microscopes does not make lipreading easy or help my interpreters)...they sent me to the morgue with medical students and nursing students. This book provided the background I needed to do well in this situation, because the drawings were explicit enough to be recognizeable when presented with the real thing. I also use this book with deaf students who I hope to encourage to go into science. The drawings always get them interested enough to ask questions, and that is what good science is about. Karen Sadler, Science Education, University of Pittsburgh
