This book also incorporates developments in dopaminergic therapy, chemodenervation, surgery and rehabilitation in dystonia care. It is aimed for clinicians and researchers with special interest in movement disorders, and perhaps those who may have keen interest in focal dystonia presentation, pathophysiology, genetics and management issues. The book addresses facets of the dystonia phenemenology as these impinge on the clinical overlaps with parkinsonism, tremors, as well as the genetic background.
