'Epilepsy: A Cleveland Clinic Guide' by Elaine Wyllie, M.D.
CLEVELAND, Feb. 15 /PRNewswire/ -- Epilepsy doesn't have to run or ruin
your life. Here is required reading for anyone who has epilepsy or a loved
one with the disease. "Epilepsy: A Cleveland Clinic Guide" from
http://www.clevelandclinicpress.org/ [Cleveland Clinic Press] is an
enlightening consumer health book that demystifies epilepsy and empowers
patients to help control their seizures and their lives.
Written by Dr. Elaine Wyllie, a world-renowned pediatric neurologist
and epilepsy specialist at http://www.clevelandclinic.org/ [Cleveland
Clinic], this epilepsy book tells readers the truth about the definition of
seizures, their underlying causes, and ways to treat epilepsy with
medicine, surgery, and alternative therapies.
"Over the years, I have frequently noticed that while patients and
their loved ones have been informed of various aspects of the epileptic
condition they're dealing with, they're left alone when it comes to knowing
what to expect and how to handle the disease as it evolves," writes Dr.
Wyllie in her book about epilepsy. "In this book, I've attempted to close
that gap by linking information directly with the appropriate action
steps."
Based on dozens of case studies from the nationally recognized
Cleveland Clinic Epilepsy Center, this comprehensive medical guide explains
in simple terms the physical, emotional, and psychological components of
epilepsy. Dr. Wyllie's epilepsy book also addresses how the disease affects
women, children, and seniors.
Most of all, Dr. Wyllie illustrates that there's plenty of hope for the
millions of people who have some form of epilepsy.
