| Description: |
Neurology is the branch of medicine dealing with the diagnosis and treatment of disorders of the brain, nerves and muscle. Much of neurological practice is highly specialised and takes place in tertiary referral centres. However, neurological problems will be encountered by doctors and nurses in all branches of medicine in both the community and hospital environments, dealing with patients at all stages of life.Michael Donaghy's book has been praised by both lecturers and students alike for successfully breaking down the barriers which conventionally surround the subject and for making neurology simple, in a concise innovative way, following GMC recommendations.The book highlights crucial neuroanatomical and neurophysiological knowledge and relates this to clinical neurology. It covers treatment and management including ethical and rehabilitation issues, and also introduces students to the pathogenesis of many diseases. |
