Parkinson’s disease (Pd)—clinician’s desk reference

摘要

In 176 pages the authors aim ‘to provide a concise practical and useful resource’ using a ‘unique approach’.nnThe presentation borrows from the ‘glossier’ journals using a bulleted approach with larger bullets including narrative. Striking are the excellent diagrams, charts and tables presented in easily readable pastels.nnThere are only two UK contributors but the content is relevant to the UK reader; particularly the well-summarised facts and figures chapter but also those dealing with clinical aspects and drug treatments. Less familiar was the Florida Surgical Questionnaire for Pd in the comprehensive scales chapter! Country-specific differences apart, it was very refreshing to see chapters on the Nurse Specialist and Allied Health Professionals.
