About the Book

Clinical Neurology of Aging, Third Edition continues the tradition of the First (1984) and Second (1994) editions with 60 chapters written by the world's elite clinicians from neurology, geriatrics and research on all aspects of geriatric neurology. Aging does not automatically imply decline. Many older people find joy in their friendships and their willingness to look at the world with a calmer view than they may have had in youth. This clinically focused book is designed to help clinicians help older persons maintain that joy. Now divided into 9 comprehensive sections, the Third Edition contains subjects ranging from geriatric assessment to pain management and palliative care. Specific sections include: Introduction to Geriatric Neurology; Neurological Assessment in Aging; Cognitive Disorders in Aging; Motor Disorders in Aging; Neuropsychiatric Illness in Aging; Sensory Disturbance in Aging; Peripheral Neurology of Aging; Disease States in Elderly; and Neurological Therapeutics. With a deft touch, the editors - Drs. Martin Albert and Janice Knoefel - have incorporated the geriatric care perspective and a quality-oriented approach to health care throughout the volume. The result: the definitive reference, useful for all clinicians caring for older people and informative to those who set policies that affect research and clinical practice.

Review :
"Once again, Drs Albert and Knoefel deserve our thanks and congratulations for having made available this vast amount of information. All physicians except pediatricians have seen and will continue to see an increasing proportion of senior citizens in their practice. This book will make it easier for them to answer questions from these patients and to interpret their clinical and laboratory findings. " - JAMA: Journal of the American Medical Association "In the second edition of this book, the editors meet their goal of providing a comprehensive text-reference book on the neurology of aging. It should be received as an informative book based on research, written by clinical scientists who are experts in their fields."- Contemporary Psychology "This is an excellent book from start to finish. The chapters on language and how exercise enhances cognition are very forward looking. The intellectual tone is refined and elegant (quoting Longfellow and Charcot) and always adds to the understanding. The new material in this third edition is well thought through. You will derive much from using this excellent book." -- Doody's
