The second edition to this encyclopedia for epilepsy terms and topics has been revised to offer information "bullets" that combine textbook definitions with more in-depth discussions. Tatum (clinical neurology, U. of South Florida), Kaplan (neurology, Johns Hopkins U. School of Medicine) and Jallon (neurology, U. Hospital of Geneva, Switzerland) have written this reference volume for health care professionals and offer an alphabetical listing of the most common terms in epileptology as well as pertinent references for further research. A list of generic and trade antiepileptic drugs is also provided, and new treatment techniques are outlines using graphics and illustrations.
