This book is an up-to-date question bank, providing a learning experience that more closely matches the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology (ABPN) board exam for neurology.
Sections follow what's listed on the ABPN board exam. Each chapter is authored by specialists actively practicing in each subspecialty and includes explanations of the correct answer choice as well as why the incorrect answer choices are wrong. Each question include one to two pertinent citations for further reading.
This book will be an invaluable resource for resident physicians taking the exam as part of their initial certification or those taking it as part of continuing certification. This format is one with which this target group is likely to be more familiar, based on their experiences with similar resources for MCAT, STEP1, 2, and 3 exams.
