From the reviews:
“This compendium offers a fairly comprehensive list of adult and pediatric neurological syndromes alphabetically organized. … the book is likely intended for practitioners of both pediatric and adult neurology. The author is a pediatric neurologist. … One would be hard pressed to find a single book covering the breadth of pathology presented here. The book is useful for its intended purpose -- referencing syndromes.” (Julia B. Whitlock, Doody’s Book Reviews, January, 2014)()
