Neurology for the non-neurologist

Drawing on longstanding, continued participation in the education and training of undergraduate neuroscience students, medical students, post-graduate residents, and practicing physicians, the editors of NEUROLOGY FOR THE NONNEUROLOGIST have assembled a series of concise essays on areas of current clinical concern in neurology. Through careful integration of both the anatomie and etiologic approach to neurology, this book offers valuable information to guide the physician to a reasonable and satisfying therapeutic approach to common neurologic dilemmas, including cerebrovascular disorders, epilepsy, movement disorders, behavioral neurology, Keadache, minimal brain dysfunction, and sleep disorders. Each chapter includes a description of a specific clinical area with emphasis on the signs, symptomatology, pathophysiology, clinical therapeuties, plus an overall view of researeh trends in that particular area. At the conclusion of each chapter are several study questions with appropriate discussion affording the -reader the opportunity for self-examination.
Read in its entirety, the book presents an overview of clinical neurology of particular value to medical students and beginning neurology residents, psychiatrists, students in related fields of neuroscience and practicing physicians in internal medicine or family practice. It may also be used as a selective reference source providing up-to-date and thorough reviews on topics of current neurologic interest.
