Synopsis



Established in 1982 as the leading reference on electroencephalography, Drs. Niedermeyer's and Lopes da Silva's text is now in its thoroughly updated Fifth Edition. An international group of experts provides comprehensive coverage of the neurophysiologic and technical aspects of EEG, evoked potentials, and magnetoencephalography, as well as the clinical applications of these studies in neonates, infants, children, adults, and older adults.
This edition includes digital EEG and advances in areas such as neurocognition. Three new chapters cover the topics of Ultra-Fast EEG Frequencies, Ultra-Slow Activity, and Cortico-Muscular Coherence. Hundreds of EEG tracings and other illustrations complement the text.
Annotation

This book contains predominantly black-and-white illustrations, with some color illustrations.
Rudy Guerra

This book covers the neurophysiologic basis of electroencephalography as well as its features in different medical entities. Other related topics in the field are also included. The stated purpose is to address the major changes and new developments in the field of electroencephalography and related areas. This purpose is attained with the inclusion of chapters written by expert contributors specifically focusing on current advancements in the field of neurophysiology. This book is directed both to trainees and seasoned professionals in the field, which makes some parts of the book very sophisticated and probably beyond the level of understanding of many trainees. The majority of the illustrations are black-and-white. Most of them are tracings or diagrams, which are well conceived and pertinent. The inclusion of more tracings could possibly clarify the major features of some patterns. References are current and pertinent, and the table of contents is adequate and well conceived. This new edition provides a comprehensive review of the major areas of advances and development in the field of electroencephalography and related areas. In fact, this book is an excellent companion for all those interested in electroencephalography and its clinical applications.
