Reviewed in the United States on 13 February 2010Verified Purchase
This book suffers from common defects found in multi-authored texts: highly variable writing skills and lack of organization. If you know nothing about neurology and are trying to learn, you will not succeed with this book, which was my med school neuro text.
The chapter on The Electrochemical Basis of Nerve Function is dreadful. It has many formulas which produce results inconsistent with tabulated results in figures and even with the examples in the text. Much knowledge about cell potentials is assumed, and important principles like the effect of relative permeabilities on resting potential are stated without any explanation at all.
The chapter on The Chemical Basis for Neuronal Communcation is pretty good if all you want to know is the norepinephrine system. There are many synaptic systems in the nervous system that hardly get any mention, so your knowlege of those systems will be nonexistent after reading this book.
The woefully inept diagrams in the chapter on the Development of the Nervous System give no sense of three-dimensionality at all. The primary authors should look at Persaud's "The Developing Human" for a lesson on how to draw diagrams, or even the black-and-white Gray's anatomy.
The chapters are replete with forward references, forcing the reader to spend more time in the appendix looking up anatomical terms than reading the chapters. The editors made no attempt to enforce organization of material. The dime-thin USMLE review books that cover the same material do a better job at organization than this text.
To its credit, there is some depth not found in smaller texts. For students studying for boards, a better strategy might be to first master one of the review books, then read Haines for greater depth.

Really diappointed with this product. Came pre-damaged with taped up binding. Did not meet my expectations. I’ve purchased on Amazon many times and this should not happen.
