High-Yield(TM) Brain and Behavior is the fourth volume in the High-Yield(TM) Systems Series, which covers the basic sciences of the medical school curriculum using a systems-based approach. This book is the only review book to cover the combined material from neuroscience and behavioral science courses in an outline format with a focus on the USMLE Step 1. Chapters cover each basic science--embryology, gross anatomy, radiology, histology, physiology, pathology, microbiology, and pharmacology--as it relates to the nervous system. Patient snapshots provide concise descriptions of classic clinical cases. Tables help students memorize large amounts of information, and figures provide detailed visual cues.show more
