A unique resource for all health care practitioners caring for
people with multiple sclerosis. Endorsed by The Consortium of
Multiple Sclerosis Centers Multiple sclerosis (MS), a progressive
neurologic disease, is characterized by a host of physical
symptoms. But the neurobehavioral consequences of MS can be as
devastating and debilitating as physical symptoms, and they are
often unreported and undertreated. In this new book, Dr. Anthony
Feinstein, a neuropsychiatrist, documents the effects of MS on
cognition, information processing speed, learning and memory,
executive function, personality, mood, and behavior. Feinstein
touches on a number of topics, including * the common cognitive
challenges that occur with MS, such as slowed information
processing speed, impaired memory, and executive function deficits
* psychiatric disorders that accompany MS, such as depression and
psychosis * current neuropsychological, brain MRI, and treatment
data applicable to the psychiatric and cognitive disorders Mind,
Mood, and Memory in Multiple Sclerosis is enhanced both by the
latest science and by eloquent case histories that illustrate each
cognitive and emotional disorder. Feinstein also provides
recommendations for evidence-based therapeutic interventions.
Written in an immediate, accessible way, this book has a crossover
appeal, making it of interest not only to neurologists,
psychiatrists, neuropsychiatrists, neuropsychologists,
psychologists, occupational therapists, and nurses but also to
people with MS and their caregivers, family, and friends.
