Reviews"This is the most up to date text on all things related to migraine authored by 2 of the most renowned experts in the field. The authors review all aspects of migraine from pathophysiology, diagnosis to new treatment modalities and supply a plethora of references. The genetics section is one of the most comprehensive reviews I've seen. If you treat patients with migraine this book needs to be in your library." --Lawrence Newman, MD, Professor of Neurology Icahn School of Medicine, Director, The Headache Institute, Mount Sinai-Roosevelt Hospital Center, New York, NY "Drs David Dodick and Stephen Silberstein, two of the giants in Headache Medicine, have provided a definitive and bravura textbook of Migraine. This text, brilliantly readable and impeccably referenced with close to 2,000 references, will be the standard reference for care providers at any level and in any practice setting for every fact, classification, nuance, and advice on every aspect of migraine, including subtypes, comorbidity, pathophysiology, treatment, hormonal issues, and even neuromodulation." --Stewart J. Tepper, MD, FAHS, Professor of Medicine (Neurology), Cleveland Clinic Lerner College of Medicine, Cleveland, OH "In recent years, Migraine, one of the most common disorders for which patients seek medical care, has experienced increases in our understanding and treatment. Thus, a fresh authoritative Migraine text, edited by two of the world's most recognized migraine thought leaders, Drs David Dodick and Steve Silberstein, along with a group of leading experts, is most welcomed. Not only are the standard diagnosis and drug treatment chapters excellently discussed, but less frequently covered topics such as genetics, non-pharmacological treatment, and neuro-modulation are included. This book will be of value to a broad spectrum of physicians including trainees, generalists who see headache patients, and even experts in the field. I strongly recommend it." --Robert B.
