This text describes the disorders which give rise to autonomic failure and orthostatic hypotension. The language and terminology used aim to promote understanding of the clinical problems and the underlying concepts of basic science. Recent data is included in the discussions of relevant diseases.
Major advances have been made since the early 1960s that make it necessary to revise our thinking about the mechanisms of autonomic transmission and that have significant implications for our understanding of diseases involving the autonomic nervous system and their treatment. This book is a description of the disorders which give rise to autonomic failure and orthostatic hypotension. Each chapter is prepared by an international authority in the diagnosis and treatment of that disorder. The language and terminology are clear to promote understanding of the clinical problems and the underlying concepts of basic science. The most recent data, especially that emanating from molecular biology, is included in the discussions of relevant diseases. The book will be an unparalleled source for information about this area of medicine and will provide a link to basic scientists who wish to familiarize themselves with clinical problems. Readership: Researchers, graduates and undergraduates in neurology, cardiology, internal medicine, and clinical pharmacology.
