By employing a broad defi nition of what brain degeneration means, the authors are able to touch upon everything from dementias and CNS malignancy to traumatic brain injury and CNS infective processes. This book draws from and builds upon the original conference presentations, and incorporates the most up-to-date science behind brain degeneration as well as actual case reports. Each of the book{u2019}s six sections off er the reader a deeper understanding of brain degeneration as it exists in Sub-Saharan Africa. 000726578 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (viewed April 20, 2015). 000726578 650_0 $$aBrain$$xDegeneration$$zAfrica, Sub-Saharan. 000726578 650_0 $$aDementia$$zAfrica, Sub-Saharan. 000726578 7001_ $$aMusisi, Seggane,$$eeditor. 000726578 7001_ $$aJacobson, Stanley,$$d1937-$$eeditor. 000726578 77608 $$iPrint version:$$tBrain degeneration and dementia in Sub-Saharan Africa.$$dNew York : Springer, [2015]$$z9781493924554$$w(DLC)18490356 000726578 852__ $$bebk 000726578 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-1-4939-2456-1$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000726578 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:726578$$pGLOBAL_SET 000726578 980__ $$aEBOOK 000726578 980__ $$aBIB 000726578 982__ $$aEbook 000726578 983__ $$aOnline 000726578 994__ $$a92$$bISE
