Rezensionen

"The book is written mainly for neurologists and pediatricians, essentially for any practitioners who are responsible for the care of patients with headache disorders and their comorbid conditions. The content and organization of the book helps it to meet the needs of its audience. ... Given that there are few books published on headache and its comorbidities in childhood and adolescence, this one helps meet a need." (Rashmi B. Halker Singh, Doody's Book Reviews, February, 2018)
