Neurology: An evidence-based approach
Edited by Drs. Jorge G Burneo (Western), Mary Jenkins (Western), Bart Demaerschalk (Mayo Clinic)
Springer. 373 pgs. $55.96.

Evidence-based clinical practice (EBCP) is the conscientious, explicit and judicious use of current best external evidence in making decisions about the care of individual patients. In neurology, practice has shifted from a rich, descriptive discipline to one of increasingly diagnostic and therapeutic interventions. Providing a comprehensive review of the current best evidence, Neurology: An Evidence-Based Approach – released in September 2011 – presents this type of evidence in a concise, user-friendly and easily accessible manner.

The three co-editors of this important volume are linked in their passion for evidence-based clinical practice in the clinical neurological sciences, connected to a common historical origin at Western University, and influenced directly by evidence-based medicine teachings of McMaster University.

A superb contribution to the literature, Neurology: An Evidence-Based Approach offers a well-designed, well-written, practical reference for all providers and researchers interested in the evidence-based practice of neurology.
