About the Book

Metabolic Encephalopathy is meant to combine and correlate animal and human studies. It is hoped that increased awareness of the importance of early diagnosis and treatment of these disorders may result in a lowering of the incidence of structural changes and morbidity. These disorders hold a special fascination for both basic scientists and clinical investigators because they are accessible, treatable and there exists good animal models for study. Therefore, this book will pull together basic and clinical neuroscience issue in the treatment of specific metabolic encephalopathies.

Review :
From the reviews: "This book summarises a wealth of information on several neurological disorders from animal models to human conditions ... . This approach provides the book with a useful role for continuous education of general neurologists and for introducing neurological diseases to trainees in a modern way. ... this book helps to increase awareness of the importance of early diagnosis and treatment of these disorders, which can reduce the incidence of structural brain changes and morbidity." (Antonio Federico, The Lancet Neurology, Vol. 8, August, 2009)
