"Understanding Brain Disease" is as much for the specialist as it is for the lay person interested in finding out where we are today in the scientific attempts to understand and control such conditions as stroke, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, and BSE.

This book is a lasting tribute to Margarete Wuensche,herself a stroke victim. The lecture series in her memory at the University of Calgary, Canada, will help build bridges between medical practitioners and researchers and the general public. This book represents the inaugural lecture in the Series.
