This book gives the reader an up-to-date, clear and logical idea of
what caring for parkinsonian patients entails – a challenge that
clinicians will face for many years to come. It is split into three
sections:
Section 1: A compilation of the major brain lesions typically
seen in PD
Section 2: Treatment options in PD
Section 3: 25 cases designed to test the reader and the
practical application of the information supplied in the other
sections.

Parkinson’s disease.
3. Histopathology of Parkinson’s disease.
4. The etiopathogenesis of Parkinson’s disease.
a. The genetics of Parkinson’s disease: any clues for the
sporadic forms?
