Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

"The book is written with so much enthusiasm, fascination for the field of neurology, and dedication to completeness that I would not like to miss it in academic and clinical practice." --Archives of Neurology "This book is a must for any resident training clinic where the quick ability to look up terms and define accurately a disorder or differential is needed. This is obviously a book for a library but also for the neurologist's office where it will be a tool for staff to look up and understand relevant terms." --American Academy of Neurology

Reseña del editor:

This book is designed for the neurologist who (in this day of unusually strict accountability) needs to have at hand an authoritative guide to the diagnostic criteria for all conditions that he or she may be faced with in clinical practice. While originally conceived as a compendium of diagnostic criteria, the author has felt the need to expand the work to include definitions of practically all terms that are used in neurology today. Historical elements are also provided―including entries of important neurologists and neurosurgeons who have impacted the field. The result is an effective representation of the tools of the trade for the neurologist in training and a concise and precise source for the practicing neurologist.

The second edition was published in 2003. Since then, advances in the definition of many neurological conditions have been made, all of which have been incorporated in the third edition. There has also been a fine tuning of the definitions and diagnostic criteria of many other conditions. The author has collated over 1300 articles since the last edition in order to update many of the entries. As such, the entries will have the most up-to-date definition of diseases, symptoms, diagnostic tests, and pearls of wisdom. The third edition remains an invaluable guide to the spectrum of neurological practice and with nearly 7,000 references this truly is the bible of neurological terms and conditions.
