Atlas of EEG, Seizure Semiology, and Management is a comprehensive yet concise textbook with a focus on practical use of EEG and clinical neurology in the diagnosis and management of epilepsy. It begins with the physiological foundation of EEG, physics and electronics of EEG generation and recording, and technical details of EEG performance. Major sections then discuss seizure and epilepsy diagnoses, normal and abnormal EEG patterns correlated with clinical scenarios, guides to differential diagnosis of seizures, guides to medical and nonmedical management, and lastly teaching case studies. For this edition, there is a separate pediatric EEG and epilepsy section, in addition to discussion of pediatric aspects throughout the rest of the text.
