A1 - Prasad, Sashank PY - 2023 T2 - Adams and Victor's Principles of Neurology, 12e AB - Neurology is the practice and study of diseases of the nervous system. It is among the most complex and exacting medical specialties and yet it is perhaps the most rewarding, encompassing as it does all aspects of human behavior, cognition, memory, movement, pain, sensory experience, and the homeostatic functions of the body that are under nervous control. Among the provocative aspects of neurology is the manner in which diseases disrupt the functions of the mind, but the field also encompasses the study of the diseases of nerves, muscles, spinal cord, and cerebral hemispheres.
