About this title

Synopsis

Epilepsy is a condition that can occur at any age. It is often characterized by recurrent, unprovoked seizures. For some individuals, epilepsy will be a lifelong condition, while for others it may be a condition they outgrow. This practical guide explains not only the complexities of epilepsy but also details the evidence-based, best-practice treatments that help manage the condition. It also includes the lived experience of families.

The writing of Epilepsy was led by Dr. Charbel El Kosseifi, Pediatric Neurologist and Epileptologist at Gillette Children's, a world-renowned center of excellence for the treatment of brain, bone, and movement conditions. Epilepsy is part of the Gillette Children's Healthcare Series, a series of books for families who are looking for clear, comprehensive information. Health care professionals, researchers, educators, students, and extended family members will also benefit from reading Epilepsy.

Other titles in the series include:

• Craniosynostosis
• Idiopathic Scoliosis
• Spastic Hemiplegia―Unilateral Cerebral Palsy
• Spastic Quadriplegia―Bilateral Cerebral Palsy
• Spastic Diplegia―Bilateral Cerebral Palsy, second edition
