Industry Reviews This volume uses literature from a wide variety of disciplines and countries to bring together contemporary knowledge on focal lesions of all peripheral nerves of the body. The first part outlines clinically important anatomical and ultrastructural details of the peripheral nervous system, in health and when damaged. The physiological sequelae of varying types and degrees of damage are then discussed as a background to an understanding of clinical symptoms and the abnormalities found on electrodiagnostic testing. The second and larger part of the volume describes the courses and anatomical relations of individual peripheral nerves, identifies the types and sites of lesions, and discusses the investigation and management of these specific focal neuropathies. This edition doubles the reference citations from the 1,100 of the first edition. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or. Adams
