Grounded by numerous reference sources and enhanced by the experience of two seasoned clinicians, this text provides a pragmatic approach to the evaluation and management of neuromuscular disease. Here, in a single source, you'll get an insightful look at both nerve and muscle conditions, ranging from motor neuron diseases to neuropathies, neuromuscular junction disorders, and myopathies. The book opens with the clinical and laboratory approach to patients with neuromuscular disease, covering electrodiagnostic testing, nerve conduction studies, and muscle and nerve histopathology. With an emphasis on effective diagnosis and treatment, the substance of the text examines the full spectrum of specific neuromuscular diseases, giving you the “big picture” of the discipline in a way that no other text can match.

I thought that this would be a good book because of the fact the book is published in 2008, it was less than two hundred dollars, and that it was in a length that could be read in a reasonable time frame, as opposed to works edited by ...

I plan to use it to study for the neuromuscular boards this fall. Great picutres of disease, pathology photos, tables for differential dx and up to date treatment recommendations. Overall, a book that fills a void in the neuromuscular market. There is a neuromuscular atlas by one of the coauthors that is also very good and they ... Read More
