Reviews
'This is a wonderful textbook that systematically covers a complex and challenging subset of epilepsy patients. The novelty lies in the fact that there are few textbooks that offer such a comprehensive review - medication resistant epilepsy is often relegated to a single chapter in other comparable textbooks in epilepsy. The book excels in introducing the topic of medication resistant epilepsy (including a functional definition) and offering a detailed review of treatments available.'

Synopsis
Fifty million people worldwide have epilepsy and yet up to 35% of patients experience seizures that are resistant to anti-epileptic drugs. Patients with medication-resistant epilepsy have increased risks of premature death, psychosocial dysfunction and a reduced quality of life. This key resource delivers guidance for all clinicians involved in caring for patients with medication-resistant epilepsy in order to reduce these risks. Covering the epidemiology, biology, causes and potential treatments for medication-resistant epilepsy, this definitive and focused text reviews the clinical care needs of patients. Guidance is practical and includes treatment for specialized groups including pediatric patients and those with psychiatric comorbidities. Several promising non-pharmacologic interventions available for patients, such as surgery, neuromodulation diet therapy and botanical treatment are explored in detail. Leading international figures from a range of disciplines bring their expertise together holistically in this essential manual., A comprehensive review of the epidemiology, biology, causes and potential treatments for medication-resistant epilepsy. Promising non-pharmacologic interventions for patients, such as surgery, neuromodulation and diet therapy are explored. Practical guidance, treating specialized groups, including pediatric patients, is also covered.

    Mistakenly ordered a paperback that I thought was a hardcover, not sellers fault; it was described properly on the listing. Seller still processed a refund the day I went to return the item and let me keep the item anyway. A+++ service. Book arrived quickly in great condition and for a great price. Thank you so much! Amazing seller!

    seller was communicative about my shipment, media mail took a while and tracking wasn't updated frequently, but seller communicated to me very quickly on status. the item came new and wrapped as described, though the packaging in it was packed wasn't sturdy and falling apart when it got to me.
