Synopsis Parkinson's Disease Treatment Guide for Physicians by : J. Eric Ahlskog
"In this book, Dr. Ahlskog provides a logical, comprehensive, and efficacious treatment approach to all aspects of this disorder. He tells the reader which drugs work best for specific problems and how to dose. Where controversies threaten to paralyze therapeutic options, he addresses these with available data, ultimately settling on those choices that can best be defended by experience and published evidence. A discussion of the role for deep brain stimulation surgery and criteria for patient selection are provided. Although focused on therapeutics, this book covers the broad needs of clinicians including diagnosing and differentiating PD from similar conditions. Testing and counseling issues are discussed in detail."--BOOK JACKET.

Synopsis Ending Parkinson's Disease by : Ray Dorsey
In this "must-read" guide (Lonnie Ali), four leading doctors and advocates offer a bold action plan to prevent, care for, and treat Parkinson's disease-one of the great health challenges of our time. Brain diseases are now the world's leading source of disability. The fastest growing of these is Parkinson's: the number of impacted patients has doubled to more than six million over the last twenty-five years and is projected to double again by 2040. Harmful pesticides that increase the risk of Parkinson's continue to proliferate, many people remain undiagnosed and untreated, research funding stagnates, and the most effective treatment is now a half century old. In Ending Parkinson's Disease, four top experts provide a plan to help prevent Parkinson's, improve care and treatment, and end the silence associated with this devastating disease.

Synopsis The New Parkinson's Treatment by : Melissa McConaghy
This revised edition of The New Parkinson’s Treatment: Exercise is Medicine is a must read if you, or someone you know, has been diagnosed with Parkinson’s. Exercise cannot be underestimated for its role in slowing Parkinson’s down. This book introduces the seven key concepts to help you get the most out of your exercise program, as well as easy strategies and hints to keep you motivated. Based on cutting-edge research and tested extensively by Australian physiotherapists, this exercise program has been designed to bring out your inner warrior – your PD Warrior! The PD Warrior Philosophy is that exercise, education, community and a life-long commitment to fighting the symptoms of Parkinson’s can help you develop a greater state of physical, mental and social wellbeing. Neurologists and other health professionals are referring to PD Warrior as a game-changer and, since its launch in Australia in 2012, it has grown exponentially, with extremely successful outcomes and widespread popularity. PD Warrior is not a cure, it’s your chance to take control. So start now – you have nothing to lose and everything to gain.
