Publisher Synopsis
Unique and important for a number of reasons, the most compelling of which is that for the first time a physicist with much practical experience with EEGs has set out to 'tell the whole EEG story'... a fine reference suitable as a textbook for a graduate level course on the EEG in a physiology or engineering department. Clinical neurologists specializing in epilepsy will find chapter six on EEG recording... and chapter seven on EEG analysis most valuable. Thepractical discussion on the choice of a reference electrode... is itself worth many times the price of the book. * Alan S. Gevins in Epilepsia * Has considerable value in its presentation of clinical, theoretical, and speculative information regarding electrical potentials developed in the brain and their recording... a substantive addition to the library of the physician or scientist. * JAMA * This volume fills an urgent need. It brings together the encephalographer and the physicist and enlightens both. It belongs on the bookshelf of anyone working in the broad and burgeoning field of neuroscience. Reginald G. Bickford is fully justified when he predicts in a brief foreword that the book will become a classic in the field. * Physics Today * An exceptionally well-written book that will be a useful reference for researchers, clinicians, and educators alike. * Medical Physics * From reviews of the first edition: Read more...
