We
have begun the process of moving all of our titles over to
electronic format. The first in our extensive series to move to
ebook format is Laughing Your Way to Passing the Neurology Boards.
Check it out here!
We have received orders and positive feedback from pediatricians on
our neurology title.
Even though this is outside their specialty area ,the pediatricians
who have read this book, found it to be a fun and interesting way
to learn important neurology concepts. Even if you are not planning
on sitting for the neurology boards , you can impress your friends,
residents, students and anyone willing to sit and listen to you
recite neurology tidbits.
Please click the link below for sample pages and ordering

For the past 10 years we have been a leader in helping board
candidates pass their exams the FIRST TIME and are the only book
series that "takes the boredom out of board review"
In
addition, we have started a new video series titled "Got MOC?" that
will take you through the steps of Maintenance of Certification
(MOC). Each week I will be posting a video update on the process as
I go through it myself. Hopefully, this will make this tedious
process a bit easier. We are currently on our third video titled,
GOT MOC: part III. Scroll down the page to view this and our
previous videos.
Each week we will be including a "Pearl of the Week" which will be
a high yield question and answer or fact that will help you pass
the boards. Please check out this week's Pearl located directly
below.

Stuart Silverstein MD FAAP
