Epilepsies of childhood

by Niall V. O'Donohoe

Now in its third edition, this highly-regarded classic book on the problems of childhood epilepsy has been completely revised and, to a large extent, rewritten. New material on classification, epileptic syndrome identification, investigation, management and treatment has been added to take account of the dramatic recent advances in the subject. The original framework of the book has been retained and its intention remains unchanged, that is, to attempt to give a coherent, chronological and understanding account of epilepsy as it affects children from early infancy through to adolescence.This new edition will be welcomed by the many worldwide readers of the previous editions. It should appeal to all who have to deal with the problems of childhood epilepsy, including community and general paediatricians, consultant paediatric and adult neurologists, specialists in mental handicap and trainees in paediatrics and paediatric neurology.
