Neuromuscular Disorders by David Hilton-Jones
The term neuromuscular disorders covers a wide range of conditions varying in age of onset, severity, and speed of progression but which share many common management issues. Written by a multidisciplinary author team for all those involved in the overall care and management of such individuals, this handbook smooths the journey for patients and carers through the complex maze of management issues relating to their condition. Extensively illustrated throughout, Neuromuscular Disorders in the Adult concentrates on the care of the adult patient - including those who may have acquired their disability during childhood, providing practical advice and support for all professionals working with people with muscular dystrophy and other neuromuscular disorders.
The strength [of this book] is the multidisciplinary approach of professionals with extensive experience in the fieldIt lays a good foundation, and points the opportunities for good interaction in this patient group. NMA We hope tht our book will have a place in hospitals, clinics and social service departments ... and on patients' own bookshelves. Inspirations
