Echolyn: Stars and Gardens

For stroke survivors and their families, this guide answers basic questions about treating and managing strokes. Caplan (neurology, Harvard Medical School) uses examples and illustrations to explain the features of common stroke types and the relationship between patient experiences and the affected areas of the brain. Like others in the Quality of Life Series, this guide is meant to help patients participate more actively in their own care. Annotation © 2006 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
