Back in 1978, the first edition of Mayo Clinic Medical Neurosciences revolutionized our approach to teaching by aligning neuroscience knowledge to a clinician's approach to patient assessment. From those historical roots, the authors of this sixth edition set out on a daring enterprise to produce an updated and reorganized book. What follows is an erudite, insightful, and intellectually stimulating journey as we are led from gene to connectome and from perception to consciousness. It is a tailor made compendium that provides critical insight on applied neurosciences. Rich and detailed, it's an invaluable reference for anyone inculcated into the enchanted landscape of the basic and clinical neurosciences. This book needs to be savored one page at a time.
