Foreword to the Second Edition
Progress in neurology is being made at an ever-increasing speed. Since the first edition of this book only 4 years ago, extraordinary achievements have been seen in almost all neurological subspecialties. To name just a few, there is now firm evidence for endovascular recanalization therapy in acute stroke; convenient oral drugs have become available for the treatment of multiple sclerosis; and clinical exome sequencing is revolutionizing diagnostics of hereditary diseases. Accordingly, the text has been carefully updated, and references to major revisions such as the new classification of status epilepticus have been included. In addition, the authors have added more than 40 new cases illustrating important concepts for the young neurologist’s daily clinical practice, and much of the graphic material has been revised. The authors are grateful for the invaluable suggestions and comments to the manuscript made by Kirsten Svenstrup, Poul Brodersen, Sára B. W. Bech, Siska Frahm-Falkenberg, Vagn Eskesen (Copenhagen), Fredrik Asztely (Gothen
