Review
“An excellent summary of what is currently known and a model of commonsense and clinical wisdom. I am sure that many patients and those close to the disease will benefit from the book and understand more clearly what is known and what still needs to be done.” Professor Alastair Compston, Head of Department of Clinical Neurosciences, University of Cambridge, June 2014.
"I highly recommend Fast Facts: Multiple Sclerosis. It is substantial, very informative and highly researched – a book to be proud of. It is a fantastic book for therapists and clinicians, and a much-needed resource in South Africa." Non Smit, Director, Multiple Sclerosis South Africa, Western Cape, July 2014.
"This third edition comes at exactly the right time and reflects the dynamic nature of the field, with plenty for healthcare professionals of all backgrounds. There are well described pieces on fatigue management (e.g. the FACETS programme), baclofen pumps, intravesical botulinum toxin and functional electrical stimulation. Central is the status of disease modification in the relapsing-remitting phase, and the new oral (e.g. fingolimod) and monoclonal antibody approaches (e.g. natalizumab, alemtuzumab) are well described. In summary, a well researched and written book, which is a true current guide in the battle with multiple sclerosis." Jeremy Chataway MA PhD FRCP, Consultant Neurologist, Queen Square MS Centre, National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery, London, UK. For the Journal of Neurology, Neurosurgery and Psychiatry, July 2014
