Written for students interested in learning about multiple
sclerosis, this book describes how this frequently disabling
disease affects patients, exploring its effects on minds, bodies,
and daily lives. Written by a professor of medicine who is also
personally affected by the disease, Multiple Sclerosis offers an
overview of every aspect of the condition. It begins by introducing
the central nervous system and describing how multiple sclerosis
affects the brain and spinal cord. The author then reviews early
understanding of MS, how it was first recognized as a disease, and
the discoveries that have helped explain its causes. Moving to
contemporary understanding of multiple sclerosis, the book explores
the epidemiology of MS in the United States and around the world,
describes MS symptoms, and reviews today's treatments and research
directions. Perhaps most important, it presents the experiences of
persons living with multiple sclerosis, concluding with a
discussion of factors affecting these individuals in their homes,
families, and communities. A timeline of key discoveries and events
relating to MS over the last 500 years Medical drawings and
schematics showing causes and possible effects of MS A schematic
map of the world showing the gradient of MS prevalence rates
