Description: Rosenberg’s Molecular and Genetic Basis of Neurologic and Psychiatric Disease, Seventh Edition provides a comprehensive introduction and reference to the foundations and practical aspects relevant to the majority of neurologic and psychiatric disease. This updated volume focuses on degenerative disorders, movement disorders, neuro-oncology, neurocutaneous disorders, epilepsy, white matter diseases, neuropathies and neuronopathies, muscle and neuromuscular junction disorders, stroke, psychiatric disease, and a neurologic gene map. This volume includes new chapters on Von Hippel-Lindau disease, antisocial and violent behavior and Autism. A favorite of over four generations of students, clinicians and scholars, this new edition retains and expands on the informative, concise and critical tone of the previous edition. This is an essential reference for general medical practitioners, neurologists, psychiatrists, geneticists, related professionals, and for the neuroscience and neurology research community at large. |
