The third book in the new Mini Neurology Series, Panic Disorder, addresses a common situation in medical practice, the patient with bewildering attacks of dizziness and numbness. The book develops the history of "panic" which comes from the Greek God, Pan, through its entry into the Psychiatric Diagnostic and Statistical Manual's third edition in 1980. Diagnostic symptoms, associated conditions, and medical treatment are discussed, making the book an up to date quick reference for educated patients and practitioners as well.
