Synopsis

This practical, symptom-oriented guide to the diagnosis and treatment of neurologic problems provides up-to-date, useful information for clinical practice. Emphasizing physical examination, it reflects dramatic advances from the past five years in the treatment of epilepsy, stroke, movement disorders and dementia. Chapters are extensively revised, updating approaches to therapy, epilepsy, child development and learning, and more. Where appropriate, the costs of various medications and treatment options and the outcomes of the disease process are also addressed.

The unique symptom-based approach to the subject makes this handbook a valuable clinical tool.

High-quality illustrations of the neurologic examination are featured in the appendix, reflecting specific discussions in the chapters.

Extensively revised chapters relate the most current approaches to therapy, epilepsy, child development and learning, and more.

In chapters with subject headings previously dealing with only adult presentations, the presentations in children have been incorporated.

Lists of useful websites are included at the end of chapters.

Where appropriate, the costs of various medications and treatment options and the outcomes of the disease process are addressed.
