This is the work of two gifted clinicians. With deep credentials in academic neuro-ophthalmology and frequent performances on the lecture circuit, they are highly respected in their field. What makes them especially distinctive is that they not only understand neuro-ophthalmic disease, they catch its finest nuances and they know how to share them – and teach them.
If you think you need a straight-up textbook to learn this material, think again. Reading a textbook might be like using a guidebook to go through an art museum. Reading this book is like having a personal guide who is both erudite and passionate. It is much more fun.
The subject matter is all cases – real cases that the authors have grappled with. Each illustrates a critical problem in neuro-ophthalmic diagnosis or management. Because we learn best when wemake mistakes, the authors have selected cases in which someone stumbled.
The cases are presented as mystery stories. Whether you are a neuro-ophthalmic novice or a sophisticate, an ophthalmologist or a neurologist, a physician in training or a physician in practice, you will enjoymatching your wits against these gurus! |
