This review is from: Epilepsy A to Z: A Concise Encyclopedia:Second Edition (Paperback)
Just got my copy a few weeks ago, have read cover to cover.
I've been a patient of Dr. Tatum's for over 15 years. He is considered one of the preeminent experts on epilepy, and has done a considerable body of research in the field. His enthusiasm, vast knowledge, and absolutely phenomenal bedside manner is wonderfully conveyed in this concise, easily understood volume. I am a healthcare provider as well, and can honestly say this is a fantastic resource for those of us in the medical field!
