Online resources: Summary: 'How to Think Like a Neurologist' flips the neurology educational narrative on its head and attempts to lift the veil of neurophobia to show how neurologists use critical thinking and clinical reasoning to diagnose neurologic diseases. This book aims to provide a practical representation of the modern-day practice of medicine, where the good clinical neurologist is no longer seen as somebody who somehow carries encyclopedic knowledge of every medical condition. Rather, they appropriately recognize and categorize findings, and then, having narrowed the possibilities, they do the necessary additional research in order to appropriately diagnose and treat the patient.
