History of British Neurology

HISTORY OF BRITISH NEUROLOGY by F Clifford Rose (Imperial College School of Medicine, UK) Diseases of the nervous system are a relatively small but vitally important part of medicine. There was no scientific basis for diagnosis or treatment until the seventeenth century when Dr Thomas Willis (16211675) and his team tackled anatomy by dissection of the nervous system, physiology by animal experiments and pathology by post-mortem analysis. It was Willis who first used the word "neurology" and his team, who were among the founders of the Royal Society, included Christopher Wren who, besides being famous as an architect of London's churches, drew the first modern diagram of the human brain.

Neurology

Neurology is the branch of medicine dealing with the diagnosis and treatment of disorders of the brain, nerves and muscle. Much of neurological practice is highly specialised and takes place in tertiary referral centres. However, neurological problems will be encountered by doctors and nurses in all branches of medicine in both the community and hospital environments, dealing with patients at all stages of life. Michael Donaghy's book has been praised by both lecturers and students alike for successfully breaking down the barriers which conventionally surround the subject and for making neurology simple, in a concise innovative way, following GMC recommendations. The book highlights crucial neuroanatomical and neurophysiological knowledge and relates this to clinical neurology. It covers treatment and management including ethical and rehabilitation issues, and also introduces students to the pathogenesis of many diseases.

Companion to Clinical Neurology

This book is designed for the neurologist who (in this day of unusually strict accountability) needs to have at hand an authoritative guide to the diagnostic criteria for all conditions that he or she may be faced with in clinical practice. While originally conceived as a compendium of diagnostic criteria, the author has felt the need to expand the work to include definitions of practically all terms that are used in neurology today. Historical elements are also provided--including entries of important neurologists and neurosurgeons who have impacted the field. The result is an effective representation of the tools of the trade for the neurologist in training and a concise and precise source...

Neurology

Neurology: A Queen Square Textbook is a remarkable fusion of modern neuroscience with traditional neurology that will inform and intrigue trainee and experienced neurologists alike. Modern neuroscience has penetrated exciting and diverse frontiers into the causes, diagnosis, and treatment of neurological disease. Clinical neurology, whilst greatly enhanced by dramatic advances in molecular biology, genetics, neurochemistry and physiology, remains deeply rooted in practical traditions: the history from the patient and the elicitation of physical signs. Neurologists, neuroscientists and neurosurgeons working at Queen Square, and advised by an international editorial team, have combined their e...

Neurology

Evidence-based Clinical Practice (EBCP) is the conscientious, explicit, and judicious use of current best external evidence in making decisions about the care of individual patients. In neurology, practice has shifted from a rich, descriptive discipline to one of increasingly diagnostic and therapeutic interventions. Providing a comprehensive review of the current best evidence, Neurology: An Evidence-Based Approach presents this type of evidence in a concise, user-friendly and easily accessible manner. The three co-editors of this important volume are linked in their passion for evidence-based clinical practice in the clinical neurological sciences, connected to a common historical origin a...

Neurology at the Bedside

Neurologists, perhaps more so than any other physicians, take pride in their bedside skills. Good clinical mentorship is mandatory in order to develop such skills; however, due to an ever-increasing need for more efficient working structures, the time and dedication that mentorship requires may not always be available. Neurology at the Bedside was written to fill this gap. Neurology at the Bedside addresses neurology residents looking for a personal clinical mentor. It takes them by the hand and guides them through the whole patient encounter—from an efficient neurological history according to neuroanatomical key features and the bedside examination to differential diagnosis, diagnostic procedures and lastly, the treatment. At each step Neurology at the Bedside points out what is essential and what is not. One of the most innovative areas in medicine, neurology is under rapid development with ever-increasing diagnostic and therapeutic opportunities. This exciting progress called for an update of the text. All chapters are thoroughly revised and reflect the essential state-of-the-art knowledge neurologists need to acquire during their training.
