Reviews'... will be a very practical guide and resource for providers who treat patients with deep brain stimulation. The paper quality and colorful illustrations are first rate. The breakout boxes throughout the chapters that summarize the take-home points are reader friendly and very helpful for quick scanning.' Doody's Notes, 'I recommend this textbook, which is, to my knowledge, the first of its kind to provide a practical guide to the clinical management of movement disorders in patients with implanted neurostimulators. The book will make a useful addition to the libraries of specialists in movement disorders and general neurologists, and help to train residents and nurses in this specialty.'
