"...this is not just clever and amusing reading. These days, the medical profession needs this book, and more like it, for substantial reasons. In an era where economic pressures so visibly challenge practices, it is particularly important that we have clear and scientific rationales for what we do...
"Despite the title, the main points of this book are applicable to all fields of modern medicine...I hope that every medical library will obtain a copy and that it will be constantly in circulation."
Terrence Riley, MC, USN (Naval Operational Medical Institute, Pensacola, FL)
Journal of the American Medical Association
"There is no doubt that this is a wonderful book. It challenges many of the sacred cows in neurology, and mercillessly gores many of them. The more than 600 pages of this book is a testament to the enthusiasm, literary acumen, and productivity of Dr. Landau...
"This is a truly unique, wonderful book, unless Landau has taken aim at one our own pet beliefs or sacred cows. Landau has a entertaining writing style, somewhat influenced by his fellow Missourian, Samuel Clemens. The book is a joy to read and is filled with wise thoughts, decades of experience, and a razor-like wit. Every neurologist should read the book. I'd like to see every one of our residents get a copy at graduation."
98/100 - 5 Stars!

"This text is worth more than its listed price...Every resident in training would benefit greatly from reading Landau's text. Rendering such an assignment to a resident would, however, provide the resident with gunpowder to challenge the professor."
