Description
Summary:* New edition of this established text * The most up-to-date and comprehensive single-volume text available For this, the tenth edition of the internationally successful Brain's diseases of the Nervous System, Lord Walton has recruited eleven distinguished co-authors who are acknowledged leaders in their respective fields. The majority of the chapters have been completely rewritten or extensively revised, so that each chapter is a thorough and topical commentary. The modern approach is reflected in every chapter, but specific examples include a new chapter on rehabilitation, and much new material covering molecular biology and genetics. Emphasis is placed on the interface between clinical neurology and the neurosciences, with reference to related disciplines. In this integrated text, Lord Walton has achieved a consistency of format and content covering the whole field of neurology. This unrivalled text, profusely illustrated and well referenced, represents the most comprehensive, and up-to-date single volume textbook of neurology curently available. It is essential reading for neurologists, trainees, and professionals working in basic and clinical neurosciences, and doctors in all branches of medicine.
