The first edition of this book, now better known as the Blue Guide , was published in 1984. It highlighted the various epileptic syndromes which had recently been identified. Most of these syndromes, which constituted a practical and original approach to epilepsy, were subsequently integrated into the international classification for epilepsies in 1989, a classification which, despite some calling into question, still remains valid and useful today. Epileptology is changing, and the syndromic approaches are now complemented by an etiological approach based on the considerable progress made in genetics. A purely electro-clinical approach is no longer appropriate in many cases today. This 5th edition of the Blue Guide provides a summary of the latest developments. The structure of the book has changed slightly, giving more space to physiological, epidemiological, genetic and therapeutic approaches. Nevertheless, the description of epileptic syndromes remains at the heart of this work. The diversity of contributors - coordinators and authors - provides this book with the qualities of objectivity and seriousness which have formed the basis of its reputation for almost 30 years.

Since 1984, the year of the publication of its first edition, the famous Blue Guide has been the international reference for paediatricians and neuropaediatricians with regard to epileptic syndromes in infants, children and adolescents.
 This 6th edition reviews some of the most noteworthy developments in the field, particularly in epileptic syndromes, but also focuses on the genetic aspects of the syndromes and their development. Progress brought about by advances in neuroimaging is also discussed in addition to specific etiologies such as parasitic diseases and immune and autoimmune diseases.
 The different backgrounds of the contributors - coordinators and authors ensure that the book s longstanding reputation for objectivity and seriousness, built over almost 35 years, remain well-deserved.
 This book written by the current leading specialists is recognized worldwide as the international reference in epilepsy.

Fully revised and updated, this second edition includes more than 2/3 new high-quality digital figures. A new Classification approach to epilepticseizures and to the epilepsies became official in 2017. Several aspects in terms of terminology have been included in this book and most of the chapters have been rewritten. This volume focuses on epilepsies in their diversity. It is richly illustrated, and each EEG plate is analyzed in order to highlight the most significant elements to be used both for the diagnosis and interpretation. The originality of this textbook lies in its patient-based approach, thereby avoiding the pitfall of a formal presentation of EEG documents without their clinical context. Hence electroencephalography is placed at the core of the diagnostic and therapeutic discussion concerning patients with epilepsy. Given the practical orientation of this Atlas, the focus is on common forms of epilepsies; nevertheless, some less common, more intriguing forms have also been illustrated. A synthetic text summarizes the present approach to the main epilepsy categories. This Atlas is designed for all the actors who may be involved with patients with epilepsy. Physicians who deal with EEG will find it a valuable tool to improve the education of their early years, to help them with their interpretations later on, and for teaching purposes when more experienced. But it will also prove useful for all the physicians interested in epilepsy, as well as EEG technologists intent on providing quality recordings, and other professionals. Thorough understanding of human epilepsies requires extensive knowledge of their EEG correlates.
