4.0 out of 5 stars comprehensive, although not much plausible, Feb 25 2008

By Hossam Ahmed Azmy "The neurolocalizer" - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Handbook of Headache (Paperback)

To me ,a general neurologist dealing very frequently with headache patients , this is comprehensive book regarding all aspects like pathogenesis, symptomatology and treatment, but the material is not beatifully organised and rather seems as though collected and condensed.
