Parkinson's Disease by Roger C Duvoisin
This edition has been revised to reflect important new findings of relevance to patients with Parkinson's disease and their families. The book is designed as a resource from which the non-medical reader can obtain critical information on research and treatment. A special highlight of this edition is a chapter on the genetic aspects of the disease. The recent resurgence of stereotaxic pallidotomy is addressed in the completely revised surgery chapter, which also presents a thorough discussion of neural grafting and foetal transplants. The authors have also revised and expanded the chapters exploring the concepts of the disease and its symptoms, including a closer look at the Lewy body, which is now central to concepts of the disease. In addition, this volume provides the latest information on drug therapies, explains new terms and presents authoritative projections for the future.| SKU | Unavailable |
