内容説明

The Recent Advances in Epilepsy series reflects the multidisciplinary nature of epilepsy and includes coverage of experimental, clinical, pharmacological, and psychosocial aspects of epilepsy. This is the latest volume, balancing theoretical and scientific concerns with practical guidance. This makes it essential reading for trainee and practising neurologists, epileptologists, psychiatrists and general physicians with an interest in adult and paediatric epilepsy. Review books like this are very popular for helping readers to update themselves quickly without having to read a large number of journals. Recent Advances in Epilepsy - 6 promises to meet the standards set by its predecessors.What reviewers said about previous volumes: this well produced volume offers a valuable overview of a number of current topics and can be well recommended " International Epilepsy News "recommended reading for all physicians who encounter patients with epilepsy ...I look forward to the next volume in the series" Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine "this is an excellent volume ...the reviewers have provided in-depth treatment of every topic covered, and often expressed stimulating opinions in the process" Journal of Neuroscience Research"
