Description

Examining clinical neurology, this book is arranged in sections according to major functional and pathological sub-divisions relevant to everyday clinical practice. The contributors discuss such subjects as nosology, epilepsy, dementia, sphincter disorders, hysteria and infections. Other subjects covered include miscellaneous cranial nerve disorders, cerebral vascular disease, nerve root injuries, spinal injuries, Parkinson's disease and cerebral tumours. The work aims to cover the entire field of clinical neurology which focuses on the key areas of interest to neurologists, ie the diagnosis and management of neurological problems. Basic science is introduced only to underpin the principles of good practice.
