Book SynopsisTrade Review"Undoubtedly, this book will be a resource for years to come on neurology wards and consults... . The constant advances in subspecialties in neurology and medicine will continue to require regular updates and new editions to ensure readers are as up to date as possible with changing management and guidelines as research progresses. I particularly sought out topics in this edition to determine if they had been updated based on new research, and each time I was impressed with what I found.
