Description
Thoroughly revised for the paperback edition, this practical volume describes the different modes of transmission of neurological conditions and how they may be identified, and assesses the risk of recurrence. The text is illustrated with photographs of representative clinical conditions and features extensive reference to the existing literature of genetic disorderss, both rare and common. From reviews of the cloth: "Well worth owning....An encyclopedic reference."--Journal of Nervous and Mental Disease. "Coherent, well-organized, extremely well-documented...with 134 pages of references....A fine book to take to the clinic, as well as the library."--The New England Journal of Medicine
