I agree with the authors that text-based preparation as a primary study tool is overly cumbersome and inefficient. In addition, their suggested supplemental texts were right on point.

I appreciated that the authors did not try to force the reader into one particular preparation approach, allowing for flexibility depending on one's anxiety level. Chapter four addresses the practice samples and provides insightful information on the criteria used to evaluate one's submitted work. Their advice on picking moderately complex cases is a wise one. Examples of the type of information that should be redacted from the work samples are provided. There is also a helpful sample professional data sheet that can be used as a template.

The penultimate chapter is appropriately the longest of all as it deals with the section of the examination that many find the most challenging — the oral examination. After reading this chapter, the reader will feel well prepared to tackle the three components of the oral examination as each receives comprehensive coverage. The authors help the reader understand what the examiners are evaluating, which increases the reader's familiarity and comfort with the process.

As an aside, each of the last three chapters provides information on pass rates. Future editions of this book will likely emerge as the board certification process evolves over time but there are no glaring omissions that need to be added in future editions. Some stylistic changes may be considered, however. That is, in attempting to be non-intimidating and re-assuring, the authors sometimes add humorous quips in parentheses which can be distracting and consistently convey the message that the reader is an excellent neuropsychologist when this will obviously not always be the case.

This stylistic aspect can probably be modified to some extent in future editions. This small critique notwithstanding, Armstrong et al. Speaking from experience, this is a book that definitely lives up to its title.
