Críticas:
'This is a pragmatic text, steeped with the authors' experience. ... Short of having Adolfo Bronstein universally available to sort out dizzy people, this book is a very acceptable addition to a neurologist's armamentarium for dealing with a common clinical problem.' Advances in Clinical Neuroscience & Rehabilitation
'The first edition of this 200-page book with a video CD certainly serves as a very welcome and highly reliable guide for the clinician confronting the difficult and broad field of dizziness. ... As the title indicates, this book takes an, above all, practical approach to the diagnosis and treatment of different vertigo/dizziness syndromes. Practising clinicians can quickly acquire an understanding of the physiological essentials of the vestibular system. The book is clearly written and adequately illustrated. ... this is a thoroughly readable and highly recommendable book.' European Neurology
Reseña del editor:
Most clinicians find it difficult to diagnose dizzy patients, as the potential causes span various subspecialties, including internal medicine, neurology, otology, ophthalmology and psychiatry. This book offers a novel approach, with chapters organized by easily recognisable clinical presentation, such as recurrent vertigo or positional vertigo. To orientate the reader, a table with differential diagnoses is given at the beginning of each chapter, including key features of each disorder. The authors' friendly approach extends to advice on history taking and clinical examination, and each chapter ends with hints on 'what to do if you haven't a clue'. Common disorders are highlighted, with brief coverage of rarities. Basic science aspects are limited to what is really relevant to the clinicians. A useful CD shows the clinical examination, positioning and exercises for vestibular rehabilitation. With this book at hand, many more doctors will approach their next dizzy patient with confidence.
