Riassunto

Introductory Neurology provides a concise introduction to neurology for undergraduate and postgraduate medical students. This book is designed to relate the basic sciences, particularly physiology and anatomy, to the examination of the nervous system and to neurological diseases. This textbook combines basic neuroscience with clinical neurology and is suitable for preclinical and clinical medical students. The third edition of this book is completely revised and updated.

Su questo libro

Dalla quarta di copertina:

Introductory Neurology provides a concise overview of the nervous system from clinical perspective, relating physiology, anatomy and pharmacology to the examination of the nervous system and to the diagnosis and treatment of neurological diseases. The text is an ideal companion for those learning or teaching neurology in medical schools. The writing style is clear and straightforward, making it easy to read, and there is extensive use of simple diagrams to clarify more difficult concepts. The comprehensive index, with extensive cross-referencing, makes the text very accessible to those first encountering neurology and its lexicon.

The text is aimed primarily at undergraduates and postgraduates but will also be of value to students and graduates from other biological sciences with an interest in the nervous system. Established medical practitioners needing a quick reference to refresh their memory for neurological diseases will also find it useful.

The third edition has been reorganized into the sections: Neurological Diagnosis, Neurological Disorders, and investigation and Treatment of Neurological Disorders. There have been extensive revisions to the text and illustrations to incorporate the most recent advances in these areas. A new chapter on neurological investigations has been introduced to cover the impact of rapid developments in molecular genetics and imaging techniques on the investigation and diagnosis of neurological disorders.

The authors bring a background of both extensive clinical experience and research achievement to this work. This combination has resulted in a text that links the enormous expansion in the neurosciences and the clinical management of patients with neurological illness.
