T2  - Adams and Victor's Principles of Neurology, 12e
AB  - After  an  initial  disastrous  introduction  to  neurology  as  a  medical  student,  my  lifelong  affair  with  the  specialty  began  in  1977  as  a  medical  resident  followed  by  my  first  year  of  neurology  residency  in  1978.  From  the  start,  the  first  edition  of  Principles  of  Neurology  became  my  bible,  which  I  and  my  co-trainees  read  from  cover  to  cover.  The  field  has  changed  immensely  since  that  time,  and  widely  distributed  neurology  textbooks  are  multiauthored  by  experts  in  the  large  number  of  neurology  subspecialties  that  now  dominate  the  field.  This  results  in  chapters  providing  considerable  detail  but  often  in  a  very  patchy,  inconsistent,  and  sometimes  inaccurate  fashion.  The  publication  of  the  twelfth  edition  of  Adams  and  Victor’s  celebrated  text  reaffirms  that  there  is  still  an  important  place  on  the  shelves  of  neurology  trainees  and  practitioners  for  a  volume  that  originated  from  the  two  remarkable  neurological  authorities,  Raymond  Adams  and  Maurice  Victor,  and  is  now  written  by  four  experienced  authors  sharing  their  clinical  experience  with  a  uniform  approach  to  the  presentation  of  the  field  that  is  typically  lost  in  the  world  of  multiauthored  texts.
