Neuroradiology: The Requisites (Expert Consult-Online and Print) (Requisites in Radiology) by David M. Yousem MD MBA, Robert D. Zimmerman MD and Robert I. Grossman MD

"I consider it to be the wisest purchase of a textbook in the entire field of diagnostic neuroradiologyThis is the text recommended over all others, no matter one's degree of experience or training. This book is unique in its approach, complete in its content, and profuse in its illustrative and tabular material." - AJNR, review of the 2nd edition

Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism
First of all, this is a good book. It covers most of the topics a 1st year radiology resident needs to know. However, it wanders too much on shallow comments and -supposedly funny- jokes that only distracted me from my study. I'm a person who struggles to keep her concentration, I have a poor attention span, if you will, so when I was reading something complex (as most of the subjects in neuroradiology are) and then the authors ended up with a lame joke, it was as if everything I just read became lost. That may be 'my' limitation, as I mentioned, not a real flaw of the book, but I think people who, like me, need a more 'clasically' structured and 'traditionally' written text, should be warned that this volume of the Requisites series isn't the most adequate to suit their way of study.
