Neurology is an exciting and evolving clinical science. The fact that many previously untreatable diseases are now known to be not only treatable, but preventable, has raised new optimism for the probability that treatments will emerge for other currently incurable neurologic disorders. This book is written and illustrated for students of clinical neurology, neurologists-in-training, and practicing neurologists, who need ready access to a comprehensive, up-to-date, and evidence-based guide to the understanding, diagnosis, and management of common and important neurologic disorders. The book includes more than 800 illustrations, many of which are images taken from the authors’ own practice.
