Neurology: A Queen Square Textbook, second edition, is an essential companion that demonstrates the rapid pace of advancement within clinical neurology and applied neurosciences. This second edition includes fully revised and updated chapters to reflect the increasing role of neurologists in acute care and provides current reviews of recent advances in neurological management. Compiled by a team of distinguished editors from the renowned Queen Square, the book will appeal to practising neurologists and those seeking specialist training in the field. Neurology: A Queen Square Textbook is the only major neurology textbook written entirely from a single institution. It benefits from being edited in a collaborative manner to create consistent and authoritative subspecialty reviews. This edition maintains its core goals: to provide a coherent and practical overview of contemporary bedside neurological practice and of the principles which underlie the translation of neurosciences into clinical care.
