good for psych questions by Lindsay Jordan (Orangeburg, NY)  4 Stars
January 15, 2008
The questions in this book were pretty good and the answers were illuminating while still being succint. It was a very helpful book but it did not cover neurology sufficiently at all. It works well with another book for the neuro portion.
