Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Handbook of Epilepsy Treatment (Paperback)
I bought this book and found out that some of the desriptions of antiepileptic medications are out of date. Like trileptal, zonegran and vimpat. nomoreseizures.com is the best for up to date desriptions.
