Summary: A must for patients and family members.
Review: As the daughter of an 83 yr old mother who is developing more and more PD symptoms, I found this to be an invaluable resource. I have looked at other newer resources and this is by far, the one I prefer due to the information found within and its readability. My mother is now reading it for the third or fourth time, highlighting as she goes. It has helped both of us understand and deal more efficiently with the many symptoms, as they develop.

Summary: First good information I found on the Parkinson's condition
Review: My aunt picked this up in a continuing education class she took to better understand this disease has been affecting her sister, my mother. It does an excellent job of presenting the evolution of our limited understanding of the causes of the Parkinson's condition. Case studies are used to expand on this basic understanding by illustrating the utility of the insights in dealing with the disease in actual patients.If you are interested in understanding this disease, this little book is a great place to start. It will provide an excellent base to build on with more recent literature, as well providing an understanding of how and why different treatments succeed or fail.
