Editorial Reviews
Review
'...this is a book that all postgraduate libraries should possess and it would be of value to the majority of practising neurologists and physicians.' Journal of the Royal College of Physicians of London; 'The chief attraction of the book is a lively and interesting sytle combined with clarity and relevance which is well maintained despite mulitple authors. The non-specialist will find it a useful text that captures much of the excitement and rapid advance that is occurring in the diagnosis and treatment of epilepsy.' Epilepsy Research; 'This is a very readable book. It is unusual to find writing of such uniformly high quality and in a multiauthored textbook. It is a rare book these days that both helps physicians and is a pleasure to read.' The New England Journal of Medicine.
