Everything you need to know about neuromuscular disease--in one concise, full-color volume "...this book will become an indispensable resource for clinicians involved in the diagnosis and management of patients with neuromuscular diseases, as well as for scientists working on the nature and pathogenesis of these disorders. It is a much-needed and welcome addition to the neurological literature and will rapidly gain acceptance as a standard work of reference."--Michael J. Aminoff, MD, DSc, FRCP, (from the foreword) Neuromuscular Disorders is comprehensive in scope, yet concise enough to serve as a valuable point-of-care guide for your day-to-day clinical practice. Grounded by numerous reference sources and enhanced by the experience of two seasoned clinicians, this text provides a pragmatic approach to the evaluation and management of neuromuscular disease. Here, in a single source, you'll get an insightful look at both nerve and muscle conditions, ranging from motor neuron diseases to neuropathies, neuromuscular junction disorders, and myopathies. The book opens with the clinical and laboratory approach to patients with neuromuscular disease, covering electrodiagnostic testing, nerve conduction studies, and muscle and nerve histopathology. With an emphasis on effective diagnosis and treatment, the substance of the text examines the full spectrum of specific neuromuscular diseases, giving you the “big picture” of the discipline in a way that no other text can match. FEATURES: <ul>
<li>Convenient coverage of both nerve, muscle and neuromuscular transmission disorders--both primary and secondary neuromuscular diseases </li>
<li>Specific disease sections encompass the range of conditions likely to be encountered in clinical practice, including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, myasthenia gravis, radiculopathies and plexopathies, mononeuropathies, various polyneuropathies, toxic myopathies, and dozens more </li>
<li>The very latest diagnosis and treatment recommendations and protocols based on the most recent clinical literature and research </li>
<li>Well-illustrated with EMGs, histopathology, and clinical photos</li>

What Is Language Development?: Rationalist, Empiricist, and Pragmatist Approaches to the Acquisition of Syntax

Language development is one of the major battle grounds within the humanities and sciences. This is the first time that the three major theories in language development research have been fully described and compared within the covers of a single book. The three approaches: (1) The rationalism of Chomsky and the syntactic nativism that it entails; (2)The empiricism instinct in connectionist modelling of syntactic development; (3) The pragmatism of those who see the child as actively constructing a grammatical inventory piece-by-piece through recruiting general learning abilities and socio-cognitive knowledge.   The book is unique in striking a balance between broad philosophical assessment of these three theories and and fine-grain, fairly technical, accounts of how they fare at the empirical and linguistic 'coal faces.'   In Part I, the kind of psychology to which rationalism, empiricism, and pragmatism give rise are described with reference to philosophers such as Fodor, Hume, and the American pragmatists from Piece, to Rorty, and Brandom. After an introduction to the syntactic analysis of the sentence, Part 2 continues with an account of the evolution of Chomskyan theory from its inception to present day, followed by a review of developmental research inspired by it. Part 3 takes a sceptical look at connectionist modelling of syntactic development. Part 4 describes the kind of linguistic theories that the socio-cognitive approach find sympathetic, reviewing its empirical progress (e.g., the work of Tomasello), ending with a comparison of how the generativists and functionalists tackle the evolution of syntax. Clearly and accessibly written, the book will be an important text for the developmental psychologists, linguists, and philosophers working on language.

Contrary to many students' belief, good writing does not come naturally. Now in a new edition, this superb handbook examines both the general precepts for effective writing and the particular requirements of writing papers in the social sciences. It points out some of the most common errors in student composition and suggests how to avoid or correct them. Moreover, the intent of the original Making Sense remains: to provide students with a clear, concise, and engaging guide to help them escape the common pitfalls of writing, and to develop confidence through an understanding of basic principles and a mastery of sound techniques.
