This book teaches neurologists to make a rapid diagnosis, by looking for clues starting from a patient's appearance all the way down to a directed and precise examination. The authors present a series of short cuts to best determine the nature of a disorder; some derive from clinical observations while others have been shown at previous Neurobowl© competitions. These diagnostic shortcuts that the authors call "Handles" are features that might permit a rapid diagnosis . Conversely "Red Flags" are observations that should warn a clinician to reconsider and think of an alternative solution. Highly illustrated with figures, tables, and video clips throughout, Instant Neurological Diagnosis: A Companion to Neurobowl© is an ideal guide for enhancing clinical acumen and better patient management. This book is a perfect companion for any medical practitioner, from neurologists in training to specialists.

Parkinson's disease, first described by James Parkinson in 1817, is one of the most important disabling conditions of later life. It is estimated to effect 1 percent of all 70-year-olds, but is also seen in younger people, with 10 percent of cases occurring before the age of 50. Care of patients with Parkinson's disease requires many different health care professionals to work together as a team, and research into parkinsonism continues at an ever increasing pace. Patients need to be reassured that those involved in their care have access to reliable information and that the treatment and care they receive is the best available. The aim of Fast Facts - Parkinson's Disease is to provide doctors, nurses and therapists with the up-to-date information they require to improve the lives of their patients with Parkinson's disease and its related disorders. Kapil D Sethi is Professor of Neurology at the Medical College of Georgia, and director of the Movement Disorders Clinic and co-director of the Chemodenervation Clinic.
