For more than 60 years, Merritt's Neurology has remained a trusted
landmark text in clinical neurology, providing unparalleled guidance on
neurologic protocols, treatment guidelines, clinical pathways,
therapeutic recommendations, and imaging. The fourteenth edition
reflects the state of today's practice, with fully updated content and

initial editions of this book. Lauded for its comprehensive coverage,
