Falls in Epileptic and Non Epileptic Seizures During Childhood

At the Mariani Foundation meeting held in Milan, October 1995, highly qualified specialists were invited to assist in understanding of the basic principles of cerebral development and brain function, with specific attention to those structures and mechanisms involved in the phenomenon of falls. Epiliptologists illustrate the different semiologic modalities and clinical conditions in which the fall is an essential symptom. A main part of the book is dedicated to the medical and surgical treatment of syndromes where falls appear in the foreground. This volume has the mission of improving life conditions of children who suffer from drop seizures, by limiting the risks to which they are subjected, and to try and compensate for the psychological and social limitations affecting them.

That seemingly minor event in the small town of Mount Sterling became national front-page news. Northerners and southerners alike raised questions regarding Reid's response. Would he react as a Christian gentleman, a man of the law, and let the legal system take its course, or would he follow the manly dictates of the code of honor and challenge his assailant? Which choice would win out in Kentucky's notoriously violent society?

Bodyrhythms

Chronobiology--the study of body time--may revolutionize your life. Bodyrhythms by veteran medical writer Lynne Lamberg is a comprehensive, eminently readable report on advances in maximizing daily alertness, avoiding errors at work and on the highway, and treating mood and sleep disorders and other illnesses. It is no accident, Lamberg says, that the Exxon Valdez, Three Mile Island, Chernobyl, and Bhopal disasters occurred at night. Or that doctors, nurses, pilots, truckers, train engineers, and other workers make more mistakes--sometimes fatal mistakes--on the night shift. Unlike many other countries, the United States has no laws governing work and rest hours that acknowledge that when people sleep may be even more crucial than how long they sleep in determining their performance and well-being. Bodyrhythms makes a compelling argument for workplace reforms.
