A wealth of tables throughout the book will help busy clinicians quickly reference relevant information, regardless of the patient's presentation. And an extensive list of recommended readings opens the door to further study.

As useful for trainees as it is for the experienced practitioner, the Concise Guide to Neuropsychiatry and Behavioral Neurology, Third Edition offers the latest science and expert guidance to both achieve accurate diagnosis and undertake effective management of patients with complex neuropsychiatric and neurobehavioral disorders.
