OverviewRadical changes and improvements in the ways we record, review, analyse and store clinical EEGs have occurred since digital EEG has become the standard in commercially produced clinical electroencephalographs. This completely revised and profusely illustrated second edition of EEG Interpretation provides new explanations of routine digital clinical studies and computer assisted analyses, and takes account of the increasing use of cortical surgery to treat epileptic patients, placing more emphasis on evaluation of their condition. The organisation of the material retains its emphasis on avoiding over-interpretation and under-interpretation of EEG records. All illustrations are presented in sizes and forms similar to those viewed in practice. On each subject, selected pertinent references accompany the illustrations. As we enter a new era in EEG, this volume remains of great value to physicians and technicians involved in the field.

Index.Reviews"Like an extensive teaching file that takes many years and much effort to compile and update, this atlas gives the reader an excellent reference. I am not aware of other books that use full page EEG and complete channel coverage. Other EEG books tend to be condensed versions that only offer the specific EEG abnormality and not the full pages. This book does replace a previous edition and I do believe an update is needed because EEG is changing, and new patterns are being recognized." Doody's Review Service"As we approach the end of an era in EEG, this volume, very possibly the last of its kind, is truly an anachronism but one which many who are currently new to the art of interpretation will find of value."
