Epilepsy by Susan Elliot-Wright
Epilepsy is the most common serious neurological, or brain, disorder and affects 50 million people around the world. This book looks at what causes epilepsy, how the body responds, and how it is diagnosed. It also looks at treatments, ways to prevent seizures, and provides advice on how to live with the condition - for the person involved, and their family and friends. It also features case studies and science panels, together with colour photos, glossary, resources and index.
'The series as a whole helps plug a gap in the market and will appeal to those who want to know more about common illnesses affecting teenagers' -- School Librarian Journal 20021201
