As a testament to its popularity, Merritt's Neurology is now in its tenth edition. It was originally published as a single-authored textbook by Dr Merritt in 1955. After 4 editions, Dr Merritt started to add contributing authors, all of whom were his students. Dr Lewis Rowland took over the editorship after Dr Merritt's death.
