This book illustrates the clinical interface between neurology and
psychiatry by focusing on neuropsychiatric conditions characterised by
alterations at the level of both motor function and behaviour. The
neuropsychiatric approach to movement disorders and epilepsy is of key
importance in clinically assessing and treating these common and often
disabling conditions. While addressing the clinical challenges posed
by the behavioural aspects of movement disorders and epilepsy, it
invites readers on a journey through the evolving discipline of
neuropsychiatry / behavioural neurology – both in the past and
today. This discipline has an illustrious history, and continues its
ascending trajectory in the new millennium through the activity of
long-established national organisations (British Neuropsychiatry
Association, BNPA, and American Neuropsychiatric Association, ANPA) as
well as newly developed strategic research initiatives (Michael
Trimble Neuropsychiatry Research Group, MTNRG).
