European Journal of Neurology, Volume 12, Issue 11 -- This book, written by four physicians and psychologists from Philadelphia and Cleveland, contains approximately 1200 questions about psychiatry and neurology with detailed answers and explanations, making it one of the few books exclusively targeted at those preparing for Psychiatry Boards, although, according to the authors, it will also be helpful for psychiatry residents and psychiatrists preparing for various examinations. This comprehensive review contains multiple-choice questions each with detailed answers and explanations that will help the candidate to prepare for the examinations and also for daily praxis, and thus, represents a perfect supplement to other psychiatry and neurology resources.
