Recenzje

"Knight admirably achieves his goal of succinctly reviewing current clinical and research knowledge of degenerative brain diseases in a format valuable to the clinician....The writing style is easy to read and important information is accented in tables. The author is knowledgeable about the range of disorders and aptly provides interpretations of multiple or divergent research findings and clinical features."
