A propos de ce titre

Synopsis

In the second edition of this highly successful book, authors have, once again, worked closely together to produce a seamless and consistently styled account of the diagnosis and management of stroke. The approach throughout the book is that clinical management should be based on evidence wherever possible. Presenting a unique approach to stroke, both from the uniformity and clarity of the style and the integrated clinical management which weaves together causation, presentation, diagnosis, management and rehabilitation, this book has been extensively revised and expanded to present an authoritative reference for all professionals involved in stroke care.

Revue de presse

Unlike many handbooks its content is not dry and it is up todate and exceptionally readable The authors managed to conveycomplex information about stroke and its management in a digestibleyet comprehensive format. Putting the information in a historicalperspective often with reference to personal experience and somehumor gives the reader a sense of the personal touch and makes thereading more enjoyable and even entertaining Another importantfeature is the truly encyclopedic coverage of the topics. Anexceptionally detailed index helps the reader navigate through thebook. I highly recommend this encyclopedic stroke textbook to allmedical students physicians clinicians and academicians interestedin stroke or working with patients with stroke and their familiesFor all of these readers this is truly a must have table book.

"All the chapters are excellent, but the nearly 100–page chapteron the general management of stroke is a masterpiece, dealing atthe highest scientific level with daily practical problems that areoften neglected in other books." (New England Journal ofMedicine)
