Part of the successful Institute of Health Economics (IHE) book series, this handbook and ready reference adopts a unique approach in combining policy recommendations with specific treatment options for Parkinson patients. The first part of the book deals with the clinical medical, social and economical aspects of Parkinson Disease. These ten chapters include the latest diagnosis and treatment options for patients, the economical consequences, social and ethical implications and end-of life issues. The second part of the book essentially covers a large-scale case study on Parkinson in Alberta, Canada, since most of the issues discussed are relevant in all developed countries. With its strong focus on correct diagnosis and early intervention, this is an invaluable guide for clinicians and policymakers dealing with this devastating disease.

This new book about caring for patients with Parkinson's disease has taken a rehabilitation approach and has been written by health care specialists from multiple disciplines, including neurology and physical, occupational, and speech therapy. Previousworks have generally emphasized the pharmacological management of this condition without much discussion of other treatment modalities. In putting together this book, the authors endeavored to avoid this bias and have included many chapters on discussions of other modalities. The authors favor a multidisciplinary approach to treating Parkinson's disease and have outlined various ways in which this model can be effectively applied. This book will be very useful for those involved in the care of patients with Parkinson's disease, including neurologists, rehabilitation and primary care physicians, physical, occupation, and speech therapists, behavioral therapists, and psychiatrists as well as lay caregivers. Unique features of the book include chapters on driving and on financial and legal issues. In addition, there is a fairly comprehensive list of medical and community resources including centers specializing in movement disorders, organizations for Parkinson's research and education, and a list of catalogues offering specialized clothing and assistive devices. This book should prove to be a very useful handbook for those caring for people with Parkinson's disease, especially as more centers adopt the multidisciplinary approach advocated here. 92/100.

"It is hard to believe it has been only 7 years since the publication of our first edition. In this short time, so much has changed in what we know about Parkinson's disease and how to treat it. As I read through the first edition, I found much information was already out of date within 4 years from publication. New knowledge about the role of protein misfolding and how it leads to nerve cell damage in Parkinson's, about when and where the disease may be starting, about how it may progress and spread through the brain, about how it affects almost all aspects of body functions, about how all this new knowledge is shaping the quest for a cure, about how important exercise is, and about how the multidisciplinary approach to disease management changes the quality of life of people with Parkinson's has been accumulating at a dizzying pace. More than 200 years after the publication of Parkinson's An Essay on the Shaking Palsy and just over 50 years after the implementation of levodopa in Parkinson's treatment, it looks as though scientists are poised to make a breakthrough toward effective treatments of the disease itself, not just the symptoms, and paths that may eventually lead to a cure are now visible. Such progress would be impossible without the hard work of many researchers; the financial support of the corresponding government agencies; the advocacy of national and international Parkinson's organizations and the philanthropy of their donors; and the tireless efforts and open minds of the doctors, nurses, therapists, and social workers caring for people with Parkinson's and their families. Above all, none of this progress would be possible without the active participation of people with Parkinson's and their families through advocacy, community engagement, and participation in clinical trials. To them we would like to extend a great "thank you"."--

Parkinson's disease (PD) is the 2nd most common neurodegenerative disease after Alzheimer's disease. It imposes an economic and social burden on the old age population. "Shaking palsy" is another word we use for Parkinson's disease. Parkinson's disease progresses at a slow pace. It requires years or more before a person goes through a serious disability. Approximately 60,000 individuals are diagnosed each year. Just a few other known and famous celebrities with PD include Muhammad Ali, Linda Ronstadt, Billy Graham, Charles Schulz, Ben Petrick, Janet Reno, Bob Hoskins, Freddie Roach, Michael Richard Clifford, Maurice White, Brian Grant, James Levine, Billy Connolly, and Neil Diamond. Characteristic symptoms are tremor, rigidity, akinesia (loss of spontaneous movement) as mentioned above and bradykinesia (movement at a slow rate) and problems associated with gait and posture. Effective management is a multifaceted and multidisciplinary approach that requires a team of professionals including the PD patient, family members, caregivers and support staff. This book presents alternative strategies to delay the disease process and optimize a person's functional capacity despite this debilitating disease. Included are practical and simple therapeutic exercises and strategies utilized by Physical Therapists, Occupational Therapists and Speech-Language Pathologists in addressing the issues in Parkinson's disease: TREMORS, RIGIDITY, COORDINATION AND BALANCE DISTURBANCE, IMPAIRED POSTURE, GAIT ABNORMALITY, SPEECH, AND VOICE DEFICITS and other ensuing impairments. Images of specific Therapeutic exercises are included. This book is simplified for easy reading.This book is authored by a practicing Physical Therapist and colleagues who are Rehab Professionals.
