Jerome B. Posner, MD

Drs. Lieberman and Schold have presented a comprehensive up-to-date review of paraneoplastic syndromes affecting the nervous system. The points are all well made, but a few deserve special comment:

The latest addition to the Contemporary Neurology series, devoted to the neurologic complications of cancer, is authored solely by Dr. Posner. Although this book has been written for both the student and trained professional, who can quickly adapt to the definitive nature of the tables, diagrams, and clinical approaches, it is likely to be most appealing to the neuro-oncologic specialist.
