Epilepsy: Dynamic Models & Multicellular Processes, April 15, 2005
This review is from: Epilepsy as a Dynamic Disease (Hardcover)
Milton and Jung's book is geared to the epileptologist, mathematical modelers, EEG personnel, the research scientist, and the neural engineer. This is not easily digested and understood. You have to read the book in sections to obtain the greatest insights. The book is better on theory and the physics of synchronization processes. The end of the book discusses the chance for a electrical defibrillator. We are presently at a very preliminary stage of development even though a vagal nerve stimulator has been found effective in certain refractory cases of uncontrolled seizures. This book firmly places Epilepsy as a dynamic illness with chaotic, often unpredictable characteristics and sets in motion ideas for a cortical integrated defibrillatory device. Let's hope we innovate and obtain one soon for clinical trials.
