Here is the Fourth Edition of the classic text Electrodiagnosis in Diseases of Nerve and Muscle: Principles and Practice. With each subsequent edition, Dr. Kimura has built upon his extensive experience teaching electromyography (EMG) around the world and has transferred his knowledge to the book. It is intended for clinicians who perform electrodiagnostic procedures as an extension of their clinical examination, and will be of value to neurologists and physiatrists who are interested in neuromuscular disorders and noninvasive electrodiagnostic methods, particularly those practicing electromyography (EMG). The book provides a comprehensive review of most peripheral nerve and muscle diseases, including specific techniques and locations for performing each test. While the book has been thoroughly updated to reflect the growth that has been made in the field since 2001, a DVD has also been added to the book, allowing the readers to watch and listen to various types of normal and abnormal EMG activities.

"Electrodiagnosis, as an extension of the neurologic evaluation, employs the same anatomic principles of localization as clinical examination, searching for evidence of motor and sensory compromise (Fig. 1-1). Neurophysiologic studies supplement the history and physical examination, adding precision and detail, and delineate a variety of pathologic changes that may otherwise escape detection. Electrical studies also allow quantitative measures which help determine the integrity of the sensory and motor function. Meaningful analysis demands an adequate knowledge on precise location of skeletal muscles and peripheral nerves. A review of peripheral neuroanatomy serves as a framework for the rest of the text with a few schematic illustrations at the risk of oversimplification"--
This question-and-answer formatted book provides a complete yet focused review of clinical neurophysiology. It contains 534 questions and detailed answers with page references to larger reference books and textbooks of interest. Emphasis is on key concepts that every neurologist/neurophysiologist must master to take qualification boards or to practice this discipline. Coverage includes basic physics and electronics with their direct practical implications, electroencephalography, evoked potentials, nerve conduction studies, electromyography, sleep medicine, autonomic testing and central neurophysiology, and neurophysiological intraoperative monitoring. A companion Website will present all of the questions and answers in the book in electronic format.
For as long as humanity has ventured on the seas, naval warfare has been an integral part of their activities and the focal point for many histories and ideas of heritage. This book presents a rarely explored aspect: the long‐term impact of those battles on shorelines, seas and oceans. Dramatic and altering, the physical scars of battles remain with us today in the form of cultural landscapes and archaeological sites, while the geopolitical consequences of warfare have been world‐changing. The migrations of peoples across the seas, accompanied by violence, have done more to shape the demographic and cultural map of the modern world than almost anything else. Both seaborne opportunities a...

This book presents a broad yet focused treatment of central topics in the field of clinical neurophysiology. The volume was inspired by the clinical neurophysiology lecture series at Beth Israel-Deaconess Medical Center and Rhode Island Hospital. Much like the lecture series, this book is designed to acquaint trainees with the essential elements of clinical neurophysiology. Each chapter is written by leading and respected clinical neurophysiologists.
The chapters in this edited volume present multi-disciplinary case studies of prehistoric archaeological sites located on now-submerged portions of the continental shelf. Each chapter represents an extension of the known prehistoric record beyond the modern shoreline. Case studies represent central themes of landscape change, climate change and societal development, using new technologies for mapping, monitoring and managing these sites.
