Author Description

A major success in its debut edition, the Adams and Victor Handbook serves as a concise, but thorough summary of the clinical portions of the new fifth edition of Principles of Neurology. The organization parallels the textbook and features the logical progression of "Approach to the Patient" followed by the "Clinical Manifestations of Disease" and then coverage of specific neurological diseases and syndromes. The focus of the handbook is on-the-spot diagnosis and management. An overview of psychiatric disorders is also included.
