Journal of Neurosurgery, 28-SEP-06, Volume 105 -- "A comprehensive review of all of the topics covered in the examination. The book boasts hundreds of high quality figures similar to those that appear on the actual examination. What sets it apart from its competitors in neurosurgery boards review preparation is its highly detailed explanations of the correct as well as the incorrect answer choices, supplemented by figures, illustrations, and high-yield tables. Moreover, the book concludes with a multidisciplinary, 300-question self-assessment examination that may be a useful preparation tool for the resident.
