Introducing neurology, this book is intended for medical undergraduates. It covers neurological problems in clinical practice, highlights the crucial neuroanatomical and neurophysiological background, introduces the pathogenesis of neurological disease, discusses treatment and management, and also covers ethical and rehabilitation issues.

There has been a shift in the focus of medical care from the hospital to the community. Medical students are required to understand the community aspects of medical practice and combine this with elements of sociology and psychology. This book looks at the context within which illness is experienced, health is sought and medicine is practised.

Clinical Communication Skills is a ground-breaking new resource for medical students. It provides a practical introduction to the subject, with acknowledgement of key theories. Pragmatic worked examples will be of immediate benefit in clinical environments. The book draws on patient and professional involvement with interview podcasts.
