Handbook on Epilepsy for Physicians is a concise, practical guide designed to help physicians diagnose, manage, and counsel patients with epilepsy. Published by the Indian Epilepsy Association (IEA), this handbook addresses epilepsy across the lifespan—from children to the elderly—and covers both common and complex scenarios. With an emphasis on clinical applicability, it serves as a quick-reference tool for primary care physicians, pediatricians, neurologists, psychiatrists, and other healthcare professionals involved in epilepsy care.
