When I started the first edition of this book as a newly mintedepileptologist at the Cleveland Clinic, most of our currentantiepileptic medications were still on the horizon and epilepsysurgery was in the early stages of development. Each successiveedition of the book chronicled sea changes in the field, from thedevelopment of powerful neuroimaging techniques, throughapproval of many new antiepileptic medications, to the emer-
gence of genetics as a force in epilepsy diagnosis. Today, with itsown neurodiagnostic procedures and plethora of effective treat-ment modalities, epileptology is one of the most rewarding andcomplex fields in medicine. And in society, epilepsy is starting toemerge from the shadows as patients and families bandtogether in support groups and gather information from theinternet. Persons with epilepsy are demanding, expecting, state-of-the-art health care at the same time that our field is growingmore complex every day.
Thats why we need this book now more than ever. Its rea-son for being is to provide health care professionals with themost up-to-date tools to care for persons with epilepsy, day inand day out. Thanks to the 144 world-renowned experts whoshared their knowledge with us, this fifth edition is a ready ref-erence for cutting-edge information about everything fromcomplex drugdrug interactions to age-related EEG manifesta-
tions of focal epileptogenic lesions. Its been an honor to craftthis work for all of us to use in our clinical practice.

It is a privilege and honor to be asked to write the foreword of the 5th Edition of Wyllies Treatment of Epilepsy. It is also aneasy task since I know the book well. The 4th edition is fre-quently pulled from my bookshelf when I have a question abouta patient with epilepsy, and I am looking forward to replacing itwith the 5th. While the first edition, published in 1993, was out-standing, each edition has achieved new heights. Recognizing
that it is very difficult to continuously improve a legendary text,the 5th edition will not disappoint.
Advances in the treatment of epilepsy continue to evolve at arapid rate as there is increasing awareness among both health-care workers and the public of the enormity of the condition.Epilepsy does not spare age, gender, race, or ethnic group and isone of the most common neurologic disorders encountered.Increased understanding of the etiology, pathophysiology, andgenetic underpinnings coupled with advancements in the med-ical, dietary, and surgical management of patients makes this anideal time to publish the 5th edition.
Elaine Wyllie, along with her associate editors GregoryCascino, Barry Gidal, and Howard Goodkin, has recruited anoutstanding group of authors who have provided a comprehen-sive, but not encyclopedic, review of the treatment of epilepsy.Each author is well known for their work in epilepsy.
The book is crafted in a logical and educationally soundmanner. Starting with the pathologic substrates and mechanismsof epilepsy, important chapters cover epidemiology, natural his-tory, genetics, and epileptogenesis (Part I). A key tool in the eval-uation of patients with epilepsy is the electroencephalogram andPart II of the book covers the basic principles of electroen-cephalography. A wonderful bonus in this section is a remark-ably complete atlas of epileptiform abnormalities.
Epileptic seizures and syndromes are detailed in Part III of thebook. The gamut of seizures and syndromes from the neonate to
the elderly are covered in considerable detail. Nonepileptic con-ditions that mimic epileptic seizures are reviewed and there is aheavy emphasis on seizures in special clinical settings, such asseizures in neurometabolic diseases, head trauma, and neurocu-taneous disorders.
Antiepileptic medications are reviewed in Part IV andepilepsy surgery in Part V. As the books title would indicate,
these topics are covered in considerable depth, either of whichwould qualify as a stand-alone monograph. Dr. Wyllie and hercolleagues understand that individuals with epilepsy frequentlyhave more issues than just seizures, and have devoted Part VI topsychosocial aspects of epilepsy.
The authors have crafted a highly integrated text, not an easytask when dealing with multiple authors. As such, the book iseasy to read and flows from one part to the other rather seam-lessly. While few readers will read the book cover to cover, theinterested student who wishes to review topics will find theprocess enjoyable as well as educationally rewarding.
While there are numerous textbooks dealing with epilepsyavailable, none do as much as Wyllie and colleagues in one vol-ume. Beautifully illustrated and attractively designed, the 5thvolume will undoubtedly retain its stature as the best book onepilepsy available. It is highly recommended for everyone inter-
ested in epilepsy, from the medical student to the seasonedepileptologist.Books like Wyllies Treatment of Epilepsy do not happen
without a great deal of work from the editors and authors.Kudos to all.
