This concise but comprehensive book will help interested readers in
the health care professions to navigate their way through the
jungle of movement disorders, including the potentially complex
differential diagnosis and management. The different disorders are
discussed in individual sections that explain how to examine the
patient and recognize the disorder from its basic phenomenology,
how to confirm a diagnosis, how to distinguish a particular
disorder from related conditions, and how to treat each disorder
effectively. The book makes liberal use of diagrams, algorithms,
tables, summary boxes, and illustrations to facilitate solution of
clinical problems at the bedside and to solidify previously learned
clinical and therapeutic concepts. It will be of interest to a
broad audience of health professionals, scientists, and medical
students.
