highly recommended
exellent book
I would recommend this book to anyone. It offers a good and practical review of the pertinent entrapment syndromes and other illness. Its concise and well written.
Excellent EMG Textbook!
This book is amazing! Extremely well written, comprehensive and the best
textbook
in the field of PM&R/Electrodiagnostic study. I highly recommend it!
Excellent Learning Resource
I really like this book. It teaches EMG/NCS in a step by step manner and helps the reader from scratch. 2 CD-s that come with it are a great resource.
I recommend it to every one in the EMG/NCS buisness.

Must have textbook for neurology residents/fellows
If you are looking for a solid book to begin learning about EMG/NCS, this is an excellent choice. The text is clear and concise, reflecting the exceptional instructional abilities of Drs. Preston and Shapiro. The text is very "readable" and
organized in a logical fashion with helpful illustrations alongside. A bonus of this book is the CD, which is very user friendly and allows one to establish visual recognition of basic concepts in the needle study such as spontaneous and voluntary activities. The CD also includes unknowns for a short quiz or review.

Brilliant Work!
This is truly an amazing book. I am board certified by the American Board of Phyiscial Medicine & Rehabilitation, American Board of Pain Medicine, American Board of Interventional Pain Physicians, American Board of Electrodiagnostic Medicine and with Subspeciality Board of Pain Medicine, currently practicing pain management at the Physicians' Pain Specialists of Alabama, Mobile, AL 36607. I am also fellowship trained in Interventional Pain Management. I honestly believe I have come across quite a number of medical books in Medicine, PM&R, EMG/NCS, Neurology and Pain Medicine during my medical training and practice. In my opionion, this is one of the most wonderful medical books that has ever been written.
It is comprehensive, yet concise but most importantly, it is practical. What distinguishes this book from others is that the contents are organized and presented in the most logical order so that what you read make sense and therefore can be easily remembered. The authors did an absolutly superb job in introducing each concept step by step, each chapter building on one another, integrating what is important, practical and pertinent without overkill. I had never been able to read through any medical text book(close to 600 pages, 1st edition) from cover to cover except this one, which I did almost twice. I did it during my GYIII-GYIV Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation Residency because reading it was educational, joyful and rewarding. For a long time, I have wanted to write a few lines, introducing to collegues the wonderful learning experience I had reading this book as well as expressing gratitude to Drs. Preston and Shapiro for making it availabe during my residency training, which helped me trenmendously in studying EMG/NCS. It is extremely useful in helping me prepare the Board Certification Exam by the American Board of Electrodiagnostic Medicine. I recommend this book to all PM&R and Neurology residents as No. 1 text book in EMG/NCS. As a matter of fact, I even recommended this book to my anesthesiologist pain specialist who wants to know more about EMG/NCS. The greatest success of this book is its "readability".
For me, a pain management physician working in a overwhelmingly busy pain clinic, this book also works well as a quick reference book for EMG/NCS as well as for neurological
disorders
, because time is always too short in private practice.

This New Edition delivers, in a straightforward manner, all of the information readers need to understand and interpret electrodiagnostic studies. It emphasizes
clinical
/neurophysiological
correlations
and uses a practical, hands-on, interactive approach throughout. With new chapters on electrical safety and the use of EMG in the ICUand the inclusion of two bonus CDs with over 75 EMG waveformsthis resource continues to be the single source to consult for guidance on the clinical and
electrophysiologic
al evaluation of
disorders
of the peripheral nervous system.
Features case studies at the end of each chapter. Provides a wealth of tables that summarize guidelines for the evaluation of most
neuromuscular
disorders as well as tables that highlight the results of nerve conduction studies and the
electromyography
for that particular patient.Provides clear, original photographs that emphasize correct needle placement.
Delivers new chapters on electrical safety (including absolute and relative contraindications for EMG and NCS), the use of EMGs in the ICU, and basic statistics for electrodiagnostic studiesIncludes new bonus CDs with over 70 waveforms, enabling readers to see and hear all of the waveforms discussed in the text.Provides new discussions of pediatric EMG.Discusses new disorders such as paralytic poliomyelitis caused by West Nile virus.
