Having taken (and passed) the boards three times now I can definitely say that this is a very high-yield review text. While the information is densely presented, it is also very clear and concise. I felt that I understood the material very well after reading it here. The questions at the end of each chapter are very representative of the subject matter/level of complexity on the actual test. This book compares favorably with Dr.Citow's book (either will do and it is probably not necessary to read both) and is probably better than the Sturm/Forget text. I would recommend supplementing this book with one Path slides (esp. CNS tumors) text and one imaging text (either Jinkins or Yock or Castillo depending on how much time you have. Osborn's Diagnostic Neuroradiology can be helpful as well). Two times through each of these plus a quick third time through the Moore book highlighted material and you should pass easily.

This was my primary review source for the boards and I scored >98th percentile. It is as if there are questions from the boards taken straight out of this book. You should know this book inside and out.

An excellent book for my residents to read,think,answer and read again.I would recommend the book to any resident in Neurological surgery as a supplement.More single best responses would be nice if it could be added in the next edition.

A must have book for any Neurosurgery resident preparing for Boards. This book is concise, comprehensive and written in easy to follow prose format. The figures and diagrams are exceptional and there is a question section after each chapter emphasizing the key points.

The neuroanatomy section of this book is better than Citow and is much easier to digest. Overall concise and hits all the important points.

Succint compilation of great help to lead you all through your training for the neurosurgical board.
