A comprehensive overview of basic and clinical neurology using a symptom-oriented approach

No other title makes the link between basic neuroscience and current approaches in diagnosis and treatment easier to understand than Clinical Neurology. Distinguished by its practice-oriented approach to neurology based on the patient's presenting symptoms, this classic has been updated and revised to make it even more clinically relevant and enjoyable to read.

Features:

• Essential concepts are presented within the framework of problems encountered in a clinical setting for greater relevance to real-world practice
• Chapter outlines provide a quick overview of each topic
• Treatment protocols reflect the most recent advances in the field
• Advances in molecular biology and genetics are incorporated throughout to enhance understanding of neurologic disease
• A step-by-step description of the neurologic examination
• More than 200 tables and figures
