Product Description
This new edition of Neurology of Eye Movements is a major revision providing clinicians with a synthesis of current and new scientific information that can be applied to the diagnosis and treatment of disorders of ocular motility. Basic scientists will also benefit from descriptions of how data from anatomic, electrophysiologic, pharmacologic, and imaging studies can be directly applied to the study of disease. By critically reviewing such basic studies, Drs. Leigh and Zee build a conceptual framework that can be applied to the interpretation of abnormal ocular motor behavior at the bedside. These syntheses are summarized in boxes, figures, schematics, and tables. Insights and techniques from current research, case examples, bedside and laboratory studies, and thousands of references are all available here from two leading clinician-scientists who have been studying eye movements for over a quarter century. The previous edition of Neurology of Eye Movements, Third Volume, established as acknowledged as a classic in the field, is now enhanced in this new edition by an accompanying DVD featuring the full text with links to 20 Video Displays that provide teaching slides ready for classroom presentation. Also on the DVD are 200 video clips, images, and the lectures notes Control Systems Applied to the Oculomotor System by David A. Robinson.

very sophisticated by Andrew Medvedovsky (Brooklyn, NY)

This text is very sophisticated. I got lost in the details of it, and ended up returning. I think its beyond my level right now. Probably for someone who is toward the end of their Neurology or opthomolgy residency would highly benefit. Otherwise, its really brilliant,very in depth text.

Neurology of Eye Movements by Reader (GA, USA)

5 Stars
January 06, 2001
Many medical textbooks merely describe the clinical features of eye movement disorders. What I enjoyed about this book was that the authors provide excellent descriptions and explanations of eye movement disorders. The explanations of why these disorders occur provided me with a depth of understanding that I did not have prior to reading this book. The chapters on eye movement physiology, anatomy and clinical disorders are very comprehensive, well written, up to date and well referenced. The book is also offered on a CD-ROM with videos of eye movement disorders. I strongly recommend this book. As a neurologist, this book will be very useful for my clinical practice.

Worthwhile update and great CD

This new edition of The Neurology of Eye Movements is well worth the wait. The addition of the CD is significant and the videos on it are well-done and clearly visible. You can read all you want about oscillopsias (or other clinical disorders), but until you see one with the text nearby, it's just not clear. Well done.

The Complete Guide to the Book of Proverbs is better.

3 Stars
January 03, 2000
In Search of Wisdom takes different characters from Proverbs and relates their life lessons as they relate to today. These characters include: the child, the parent, the wife, the naive, the sluggard, the wicked and the wealthy. The discussions are philisophical and insightful but tended to put me to sleep. There are no photos, illustrations or index. Hicks quotes the New American Standdard Bible. For a more reader friendly commentary on Proverbs read THE COMPLETE GUIDE TO THE BOOK OF PROVERBS by Cody Jones. The comments are interesting and very readable and includes many historical drawings and photos to give you a sense of the culture of the time. There is a topical guide and six translations in parallel to aid understanding.

This reference is lucid, concise, and easy to use. by slakhead (United States of America)

4 Stars

This reference is lucid, concise, and easy to use. It takes the point of view of the neurologist which is a higher plane than that of clinical eye care, but it reads like a novel. The first half explains the structures and their functions (theory), and the last half explains the differential diagnosis and therapies. Each chapter ends with the most extensive and up to date bibliography I have ever seen. Explanations such as how to distinguish the retic muscle are in plain language, clearer than most, and there is no redundancy in text or illustrations. The Leigh-Zee eye book is definitely a keeper for clinical reference.
