Item description from seller
Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…

Written for neurologists, clinical geneticists and other clinical specialities involved with the disorder, it deals with both the neurological aspects and also the wide range of systemic complications that may occur. In addition it provides details of information and support available to patients and families and gives a summary of the present state of clinical trials of therapeutic agents. These sections are preceded by general introductory chapters describing both the clinical features and also the current state of research into understanding the underlying mechanisms.

Review
This book written by the main world experts in the field is a practical outline for both the clinicians and families. I strongly recommend it. (European Journal of Paediatric Neurology, Vol 10)
. . . illustrates all the various clinical aspects of this complex disease and gives insight into the pathogenesis and possibilities of the management of each complication at the different stages of myotonic dystrophy. The completeness of the data presented in each chapter is imporessive. The chapters are well structured and the illustrations are clear and informative. The flow charts are adequately structured and easy to understand. The references are well-selected and up-to-date. All chapters are written by renowned experts in the field of the myotonic dystrophies and neuromuscular diseases. It is a most educative book for clinicians working in the field of the neuromuscular diseases and for geneticists responsible for the genetic counselling of patients with myotonic dystrophy. (Human Genetics)
. . . a book that offers a wealth of up-to-date, practical and relevant information. Reflecting the central role of neuromuscular assessment and clinical management issues, this book is to be recommended as an essential reference for every neurologist involved in the care of patients with myotonic dystrophy. (Neuromuscular Disorders, 14)
