Neurology

Most strokes are attributed to atherosclerosis of neck and intracranial arteries, brain embolism from the heart, and penetrating artery disease; these are discussed in detail in many other books.

This compendium fills an important niche by providing authoritative discussions on the other, less common causes of stroke, including various forms of angiitis, coagulation disorders, infective, paraneoplastic and metabolic disorders that may be associated with stroke, and a number of rare syndromes such as Eales disease and Fabry’s disease.

This new edition contains detailed, up-to-date information about the nature, diagnosis, and treatment of those relatively uncommon types of cerebrovascular disease that cause strokes. It is therefore a unique scientific and clinical resource that provides a useful reference to help physicians diagnose and treat stroke patients who do not fit well into the usual clinical categories. New chapters include stroke in patients with Lyme disease, scleroderma, Cogan’s syndrome, Chaga’s disease, and HIV.

Key Features

➤ Fully updated, new edition

➤ Emphasizes effective diagnosis and management

➤ Comprehensive – most complete reference on rare forms of cerebrovascular disease

October 2008 576pp Review of the 1st Edition: ‘There is no doubt in my mind that this is a book worth having. I would recommend buying a personal copy and predict that it will become a standard text to be found in all departmental libraries’

Cognitive NeurorehabilitationEvidence and Application2nd Edition Edited by Donald T. StussGordon WinocurBoth from Rotman Research Institute at Baycrest and University of Toronto

Ian H. RobertsonTrinity College, Dublin

This updated edition summarizes the latest developments in cognitive neuroscience related to rehabilitation, reviews the principles of successful interventions and synthesizes new findings about the rehabilitation of cognitive changes in a variety of populations.

With greatly expanded sections on treatment and the role of imaging, it provides a comprehensive reference for those interested in the science, as well as including the most up-to-date information for the practising clinician.

It provides clear and practical guidance on why cognitive rehabilitation may or may not work and how to use imaging methods to evaluate the efficacy of interventions; what personal and external factors impact rehabilitation success; how biological and psychopharmacological changes can be understood and treated; how to treat different disorders of language and memory, and where the field is going in research and clinical application.

Review of the 1st Edition: ‘ … well-written, well-compiled book that is of great value to a range of professionals in the fields of rehabilitation, neurology, and neuropsychology … a valuable, timely, updated review of pertinent issues in cognitive rehabilitation.’
