This successful illustrated textbook has been authored by a group of international experts on small animal neurology, now brought up to date for the English-speaking market by one of the most acknowledged neurologist in the USA.
The general section presents a detailed description of the neurological investigation, as well as an exhaustive explanation of neuropathology and genetic diseases. A good introduction to the practically relevant bases of neurology is provided by the chapters on laboratory tests, anesthesia, radiology, electrodiagnostics, rehabilitation, and pharmacology. Neurosurgery and neurological emergencies are described and explained in detail.
The specific section discusses neurological diseases according to their localization and provides concrete information about the diagnosis and therapy of individual clinical disease patterns.
Well presented, with well laid out text and a large number of diagrams. It also includes a good section on MRI anatomy of the brain... chapters are logically laid out... there is a lot more to this book than a dry re-writing of the old neuroanatomy texts... Diagrams and illustrations are plentiful and text is detailed without being too rambling... should prove a good introduction to the subject and will likely become a handy reference text for the more experienced.
–Peter M Smith, Veterinary Practice, 01-Sep-2010
It is designed for use by veterinary professionals with a wide range of expertise, from veterinary student to specialist (practicing neurologist). It does a phenomenal job of meeting the needs of readers of all skill levels... It is fortunate that we have an English translation of this remarkable book. In its exceptional illustration and its clarity, comprehensiveness, and usefulness, this book is unequaled in small animal neurology. (5 stars)
