Description:
Rosenberg’s Molecular and Genetic Basis of Neurologic and Psychiatric Disease, Seventh Edition, provides a comprehensive introduction and reference to the foundations and key practical aspects relevant to neurologic and psychiatric disease. This volume has been thoroughly revised and includes newly commissioned chapters on ethics, genetic counselling and genet therapy for the central nervous system disorders. A favorite of over four generations of students, clinicians and scholars, this new edition retains and expands the informative, concise and critical tone of the previous edition. This is an essential reference for general medical practitioners, neurologists, psychiatrists, geneticists, and related professionals, and for the neuroscience and neurology research community at large. |
