"Handbook of Neurological Therapy is an important summary of the field as it currently stands. The reader will find a large number of useful tables and algorithms to guide them through the wide array of therapies available. This book will serve as a valuable resource and guide to physicians in training as well as in general and specialty practice." - Anthony E. Lang, OC, MD, FRCPC, FAAN, FCAHS, FRSC. Morton and Gloria Shulman Movement Disorders Clinic and the Edmond J. Safra Program in Parkinson's Disease, Toronto Western Hospital, Canada

"[This book] spans a broad spectrum of neurological diseases, with easy to understand text and easy to follow flow-charts for practical management of common clinical constellations. The book meets an important need, it is highly recommendable to residents in training, general neurologists as well as for those experts who need a quick reference for treatment of neurological disorders outside of their field of expertise." - Murat Emre, MD, Professor at University of Istanbul Medical School, Turkey

"The editors were able to assemble a cast of leaders in the field of neurology. As seasoned investigators they are able not only to provide a comprehensive and practical therapeutic recommendations, but also a critical review of limitations of currently available therapies, shortcomings of the various clinical trials used as basis for the practice of evidence-based medicine, and look into their crystal ball for future trends and directions" - Jospeh Jankovic, MD, Professor of Neurology, Distinguished Chair in Movement Disorders, Baylor College of Medicine, Department of Neurology, Texas
