Dr. Michael J. Aminoff, Distinguished Professor Emeritus in neurology at the University of California San Francisco, is an internationally recognized neurologist, clinical investigator, and author. His published contributions led to the award of a Doctor of Science degree by the University of London in 2000. He is one of the two editors-in-chief of the four-volume Encyclopedia of the Neurological Sciences (2003; 2014) as well as one of the series editors of the multivolume Handbook of Clinical Neurology. He was editor-in-chief of the journal Muscle & Nerve from 1998 to 2007 and has served on numerous other editorial boards. He was a director of the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology for eight years and served as board chair in 2011. In 2006, he received the Lifetime Achievement Award from the American Association of Neuromuscular & Electrodiagnostic Medicine and, in 2007, the A.B. Baker Award for Lifetime Achievement in Neurological Education from the American Academy of Neurology. In 2019 he received the Robert S. Schwab Award for outstanding contributions to research in peripheral clinical neurophysiology from the American Clinical Neurophysiology Society.
"It is a comprehensive review of the latest understanding of
neurophysiology techniques and how neurophysiology relates to
clinical function. This edition continues to delight and impress.
The topics and updates are spot on. This is an essential title that
all neurologists and neuroscience professionals must have on their
bookshelves." - Joseph I Sirven, MD(Mayo Clinic
Arizona) Doody's Review Service
"Aminoff's Electrodiagnosis in Clinical Neurology has become known
as the classic textbook of electrodiagnostic methodology.The list
of collaborators reads like a Who's Who of clinical
neurophysiology. Electrodiagnosis in Clinical Neurology belongs in
every clinical neurophysiology laboratory and should be easily
accessible to residents and students. Academic neurologists and
physiatrists and those in clinical practice - both those who use
these techniques and those who simply refer their patients for such
studies - should find this text a valuable reference source as
well." - JAMA, September 2005
