This resource discusses a neurologic condition that medically and legally defines death, the clinical criteria for brain death, and compresses an amazing amount of scholarship, opinions, and clinical research into one small volume. It aims to present a practical book that can be used at the bedside. It expands on the current criteria used in countries throughout the world and highlights the often inexplicable differences among them. There is also a comprehensive discussion of the new 2010 American Academy of Neurology guidelines on determining brain death.
