Brain's Diseases of the Nervous System

This is the latest edition of our comprehensive textbook of neurology. Edited by Michael Donaghy, succeeding Lord Walton, Brain's Diseases of the Nervous System 11th edition has been extensively redesigned, rewritten and reorganized to take account of the latest advances in neurological practice. After introductory chapters on clinical diagnosis and investigation, the content is organized by disorder to provide detailed coverage of the full range of major neurological conditions.

This coverage is achieved within 35 chapters from 14 distinguished authors, all experts in their respective specialities. The book is more highly illustrated than ever before with in excess of 500 drawings, photographs and colour plates. This is an integrated and unrivalled text, providing neurologists and clinical researchers with a comprehensive, authoritative and cohesive single-volume textbook of neurology.
