This edition begins with information on history taking and diagnosis and physical examination, before going on to detailed descriptions of each type of headache organized according to the classification by the International Headache Society. Current views on pathophysiology have been summarized and new medication evaluated, with references provided for those who want to pursue a particular topic. The book is intended for all medical practitioners dealing with headache patients and covers a spectrum of interest to general practitioners, specialist physicians and neurologists. Headache is one of the most common of symptoms and can interfere with many of life's pleasures as well as working ability. It deserves to be taken seriously.
