Volume 2 in this series focuses on epilepsies in their diversity following the modern classification criteria: focal epilepsies, generalised epilepsies, epileptic encephalopathies, special aetiologies and settings. Richly illustrated, each EEG plate is analysed in order to highlight the most significant elements to be used in diagnosis and interpretation. Given the practical orientation of this volume, the focus is on common forms of epilepsies, but certain less common and more intriguing forms have also bee included.
