Diseases of the nervous system[electronic resource] /Harald Sontheimer. - Amsterdam :Academic Press,c2015. - 1 online resource (xviii, 514 p.) :ill.

Includes bibliographical references and index.

The study of the brain continues to expand at a rapid paceproviding fascinating insights into the basic mechanisms underlying nervous system illnesses. New tools, ranging from genome sequencing to non-invasive imaging, and research fueled by public and private investment in biomedical research has been transformative in our understanding of nervous system diseases and has led to anexplosion of published primary research articles. Diseasesof the Nervous System summarizes the current state of basic and clinical knowledge for the most common neurological and neuropsychiatric conditions. In a systematic progression, each chapter covers either a single disease or a group of related disorders ranging from static insults to primary and secondary progressive neurodegenerative diseases, neurodevelopmental illnesses, illnesses resulting from nervous system infection and neuropsychiatric conditions. Chapters follow a common format and are stand-alone units, each covering disease history, clinical presentation, disease mechanisms and treatment protocols. Dr. Sontheimer also includes two chapters which discuss common concepts shared among the disorders and how new findings are being translated from the bench to the bedside. In a final chapter, he explains the most commonly used neuroscience jargon. The chapters address controversial issues in current day neuroscience research including translational research, drug discovery,ethical issues, and the promises of personalized medicine.This book provides an introduction for course adoption andan introductory tutorial for students, scholars, researchers and medical professionals interested in learning the state of the art concerning our understandingand treatment of diseases of the nervous system.
