Reviews

“This is a 1500 page atlas and textbook concerning sensory, motor, and sensorimotor diseases & disorders. … There are plentiful color illustrations, clinical photographs, tables, lists, differential diagnoses, & line drawings. I recommend this to pain and muscle physiologists, neurologists, and other personnel in the sensory-motor fields. This is meant as an advanced reference. The book covers all the areas in neuromuscular diseases.” (Joseph J. Grenier, Amazon.com, June, 2016) “A very comprehensive and updated textbook reviews in extenso all disorders of the peripheral nervous system. Written by internationally known experts in neurology, the book also contains chapters by geneticists, basic researchers, the majority from the US. … Highly recommended not only to neurologists.” (Zvi Laron, Pediatric Endocrinology Reviews (PER), Vol. 12 (1), September, 2014)
