General undergraduate textbooks:

• Clinical neurology / edited by John W. Scadding, Nicholas A. Losseff. 4th ed. (London : Hodder Arnold, 2012) An excellent undergraduate text. Detailed but accurate and thoughtful. My personal favourite...
  

• Wilkinson, I. M. S., Essential neurology / Iain Wilkinson, Graham Lennox. 4th ed. (Malden, Mass. ; Oxford: Blackwell, 2005.) Despite the Cambridge authorship (!) this is a really good concise account.
