Description
The most comprehensive reference on neuromuscular diseases and disorders! Edited
by the world’s leading authority, this is the reference of choice for
neurologists who a need a complete, authoritative work on muscle diseases and
disorders. Features over 100 color illustrations of clinical, pathological, and
imaging studies in myology. Includes important information on muscular dystrophy
and inflammatory disease as well as a better understanding of mitochondrial
diseases and the genetic basis of inherited diseases.
