About this book
- Provides practical information on autonomic diseases for a range of fields
- Thoroughly illustrated throughout with high-quality figures to aid revision
- Includes contributions from leading clinicians and researchers in their field, overseen by two eminent neurologists and teachers
This fifth edition of the Autonomic Failure covers the many recent advances made in our understanding of the autonomic nervous system. There are numerous new chapters and extensive revisions of all other contributions. This volume makes diagnosis increasingly precise by fully evaluating the underlying anatomical and functional deficits, thereby allowing more effective treatment. It continues to provide a rational guide to aid in the recognition and management of autonomic disorders for practitioners from a variety of fields, including neurology, cardiology, geriatric medicine, diabetology, and internal medicine.
Readership: Physicians in neurology, cardiology, geriatric medicine, diabetology and internal medicine; researchers working on the autonomic nervous system
Reviews
Review(s) from previous editions A book that no neurologist or indeed anyone with an interest in the autonomic nervous system can afford to be without... a must for all libraries, and indeed for all those interested in autonomic disorders and is to be strongly recommended. - British Journal of Hospital Medicine
"Readers already familiar with several of the diseases as mentioned in the book will find a wealth of material regarding physiology and pathophysiology. References are up to date, and the quality of the contributions is high, as is that of the illustrations." - Brain
"This is an essential book . . . and would be useful in most medical libraries and to researchers working in the area of autonomic dysfunction." – JNNP
