`...an excellent review ... a must for anyone interested in muscular dystrophies.' Journal of the Neurological Sciences
Duchenne muscular dystrophy is the second most common genetic disorder affecting humans. This is the first book for many years to be devoted entirely to the disease, and is based both on the author's studies of some 200 patients and on a detailed review of the world literature. All aspects of the disease are covered, including its history, clinical features, involvement of tissues other than muscle, laboratory investigations, differential diagnosis, biochemistry, pathogenesis, genetics, molecular pathology, prevention, genetic counselling, and surgical and medical management. The design and execution of drug trials in the disease are also discussed. It is profusely illustrated with photographs and line drawings, and there is an extensive bibliography and an index.
