The branch of medical science which deals with the study of the function of the nervous system as well as its measurement and evaluation is known as neurophysiology. It lies at the intersection of neuroscience and physiology. It involves analysis of the functional properties of neurons, glia, and networks. Clinical neurophysiology focuses on the study of the central and peripheral nervous systems through the recording of bioelectrical activity. Some of the areas of study within this field are epilepsy, developmental clinical neurophysiology, psychophysiology and psychopathology, and motor control and movement disorders. This book is a valuable compilation of topics, ranging from the basic to the most complex advancements in the field of neurophysiology. Also included herein is a detailed explanation of the various concepts and clinical applications of this area of study. Students, researchers, and medical experts associated with neurology will benefit alike from this book
