To facilitate understanding, each chapter is enhanced by comprehensive tables and figures, as well as detailed chapter summaries.
"This book is a "must-have" for the neurologist interested in ALS. For students and other professionals taking care of patients with ALS, this is an excellent resource worth having in the library."--Doody's Journal "This book covers the topic of ALS in a comprehensive manner from clinical presentation, diagnosis and management to the current state of ALS research. The authors are extremely thorough in their approach. At times the thoroughness tends to highlight the inadequacies of our current knowledge....This book is recommended for both clinicians and researchers who wish to stay abreast of the advances in this field. Scientists in the field who wish to grasp the clinical complexities of this disease will also find it useful, An excellent neuromuscular resource book."--The Canadian Journal of Neurological Sciences
