The Behavioral Neurology of Dementia, 3rd edition (Original PDF from Publisher)

By Bruce L. Miller, Bradley F. Boeve

Most individuals who develop dementia are never formally diagnosed and therefore do not receive appropriate specialist care. This updated edition addresses this critical gap by providing practical, clinically grounded guidance to help generalist clinicians recognize, diagnose, and manage neurodegenerative diseases more effectively.

The book emphasizes how behavioral and cognitive symptoms reflect underlying brain changes and how careful clinical observation can support accurate diagnosis. Designed for healthcare professionals working in neurology, psychiatry, neuropsychology, and related fields, it focuses on enhancing real-world diagnostic and management skills.

Key topics include:

• Practical bedside mental status testing and structured clinical assessment

• Differential diagnosis of common and atypical dementias

• Interpretation of neuropsychological testing and neuroimaging findings

• Introductory overviews of dementia epidemiology and neuropathology

New to this edition are expanded chapters on advances in diagnostic capabilities, including blood-based and cerebrospinal fluid biomarkers, as well as emerging biologically targeted therapies. Coverage of sleep disorders, chronic traumatic encephalopathy, and traumatic brain injury has also been significantly expanded to reflect growing clinical relevance.

This accessible, practice-oriented resource equips clinicians with the tools needed to improve early recognition, diagnostic accuracy, and patient care across the spectrum of neurodegenerative disease.
