Title: Principles of neurologic diagnosis
Description: This text actively involves students in each step involved in making a neurologic diagnosis and covers the most common syndromes in neurology. Each of the 24 chapters is a patient case-- including history and physical examination information. The reader is presented with a patient's obvoius signs and symptoms and then is asked to consider what neurologic pathways might be involved and to trace those pathways on a diagram provided on the opposite page. The next step is to revine, via more information and increasingly detailed diagrams, the exact nerve or group of nerves responsible for the problem. This text effectively bridges the gap between basic science and clinical science for medical students, beginning neurology residents, occupational and physical therapists, nurses, and speech language pathologists. -- Back cover.
