I will use this as a clinical neurologist, and I will encourage my colleagues to do the same.”
“The fact that this book is written by physicians at the Mayo Clinic – one of the most recognized and influential medical institutions in the world – and also that it has been recognized by leaders in its field as a stand-out publication would be enough to ensure pride of place in Informa’s catalogue,” explains Lindsey. “Winning the BMA Medical Books Award makes it very special, indeed.”
