Migraine: Manifestations, Pathophysiology, and Management Second Edition focuses on migraine's diverse variations, its pathophysiology, and its treatment. Authored by a clinician/scientist who himself suffers from migraine, the book's premise is that the clinical significance of migraine and its treatment are intelligible only if the physician understands the anatomical, physiological and pharmacological factors underlying both head pain and the other manifestations of migraine. This significantly expanded and thoroughly updated second edition combines a reasonable and practical approach to the clinical aspects of migraine, an assessment of the mechanisms of headache, and a review of management programmes for migraine.
