The Wernicke-Korsakoff Syndrome and Related Neurologic Disorders Due to Alcoholism and Malnutrition, Volume 644F.A. Davis, 1989 - 231 pages The major text on Korsakoff's syndrome and Wernicke's encephalopathy. Appearing many years after the first edition in 1971, this revision carries far more clinical experience and allows comment upon nonalcoholic patients--in many of whom the disease was iatrogenic. Much is new: thiamine deficiency and the nervous system, Korsakoff amnesic state, and so-called alcoholic cerebral atrophy. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR |
