Neurology and Clinical Neuroscience -Textbook with CD-ROM

This brand-new text provides you with an easy-to-use, comprehensive
reference that features a clinical perspective balanced with relevant
basic science. Inside, you뭠l find discussions of the latest
research and how it has led to a greater understanding of the cause
of disease, as well as burgeoning tests and the latest therapeutic
agents available. From Alzheimer뭩 disease to vestibular system
disorders, you뭠l find the practical guidance you need to diagnose
effectively and provide an appropriate therapeutic approach for each
individual case. Plus, a templated, four-color design offers you easy
access to pertinent information
