About this title

Review:

Praise for the first edition: "Here is a work that the busy clinical neurologist - practicing or academic - can keep next to her/his two-volume OED, Webster's Unabridged, and Internet access. Aminoff and Daroff - themselves encyclopedic in their knowledge, breadth, and editorial experience - have put together a truly all-encompassing editorial compendium." --NEUROLOGY, October 2003

Review:

The 2nd Edition of the Encyclopedia of the Neurological Sciences maintains its reputation by presenting the most current information available in this fast-moving subject, written by an international panel of expert contributors
