Movement Disorders in Childhood

Authored by leading experts Drs. Singer, Mink, Gilbert, and Jankovic, this comprehensive reference fills a critical gap as the only textbook devoted exclusively to the diagnosis and management of pediatric movement disorders. It offers an authoritative, clinically focused approach to both common and rare conditions, integrating the latest advances in neurobiology, classification, diagnostic evaluation, and treatment. Designed for ease of use, the text is equally valuable to experienced specialists and non-expert clinicians seeking reliable, practical guidance in everyday practice.
