Handbook of Pediatric Neurology

Pediatric neurology presents so many challenges unique to young patients that it is in many ways a very different discipline from adult neurology. To help readers address these challenges, the Handbook of Pediatric Neurology uses a handy pocket format and streamlined organization to address the management of hospital- and clinic-based pediatric neurological work-up, diagnosis, and management. This practical handbook will appeal not only to pediatric neurologists, but also to pediatricians, adult neurologists and internal medicine physicians. Timely coverage helps readers keep pace with the rapidly changing diagnostic tools, medications, and interventions. Summary and outline format allows readers to access essential facts at a glance. Practical organization presents each category of disorder, along with a focused differential diagnosis and clear management guidelines. References provide guides to further investigation.
