As the global population ages the impact of neurodegenerative
diseases like Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease are
significant forces in shaping human health and quality of life in
the 21st century. Insights into understanding these diseases, and
knowing how to treat them are major frontiers of scientific
research. Neurodegenerative Diseases: Unifying Principles is the
result of a conceptual revolution over the last decade in our
understanding of neurodegenerative diseases as sharing unifying
features. There is an increasing appreciation of the common
biological and pathological features across seemingly varied
neurodegenerative diseases that entail protein misfolding
dysfunction and its consequences over time. Providing an overview
of this conceptual change is the main theme for the book.
Conventional approach emphasize the differences among
neurodegenerative disorders, here Drs. Cummings and Pillai compile
the increasingly compelling evidence that these disorders share
many features and that insights in one may be rapidly translated
into advances in another. The goal is to accelerate understanding
by showing linkages among biological, pathological, can clinical
aspects of this class of diseases. This collection of 19,
inter-related chapters, articulates and broadens our view of the
unifying features that initiate and drive disease progression
across a variety of neurodegenerative diseases over time. This book
will serve as an outstanding sourcebook of insights from experts
that have played key roles in this story.
