Description
This book will help the general physician to recognize, diagnose and manage the common neurological problems in partnership with the neurologist. Written by an English general practitioner and two American neurologists, it is meant not only to span the gap between generalist and specialist but also to provide a standard of care that can be applied on both sides of the Atlantic in an increasingly global medical community.
Reviews / Votes
'[This book] fills an important gap in the medical literature ... Shevlin, Misulis, and Samuels have achieved a remarkable feat by bringing exciting new research into the family practitioner's surgery. I am personally grateful for a neurology text which does not leave me with headache, dizziness, fatigue and memory loss.' - The Lancet NeurologyMore details
