Neurobehavioral Problems in Epilepsy

by Dennis B. Smith, David M. Treiman, Michael R. Trimble (Editor)

This volume examines the anatomical, pathological, physiological, neurobiological, and neurochemical substrates of behavioral and cognitive changes in epileptic patients. The contributors identify mechanisms common to epileptogenesis and specific ictal and interictal behaviors and relate these behavioral changes to seizure type and duration, underlying cerebral pathology, and antiepileptic drugs.
