This text includes original contributions by authors presenting their personal views and experience in the management of specific disorders affecting the nervous system. Diagnostic aspects of these problems, as well as epidemiology and pathophysiology, are discussed only insofar as they affect treatment strategies and decisions. The emphasis on treatment should make this text a useful supplement to large neurology volumes. Hot topics include: migraine, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, traumatic brain injury, acute ischemic stroke, spinal cord injury, Alzheimer's disease and carpal tunnel syndrome.
