This book consists of current knowledge on a wide variety of issues involving this disease. It will help clinicians, health care providers, researchers and graduate students to enhance their understanding and knowledge about the clinical correlates, genetic issues, neuropathological findings, cellular and molecular events and potential therapeutic interventions involved in Huntington's disease.
