In addition, other health care professionals who have epilepsy share their profound, uplifting and sometimes heartbreaking experiences and how they have come to understand, first hand, the perspectives of patients with epilepsy." "It is the hope of the Editor, and everyone who contributed, that by reading this book, patients and their families will better understand what their doctors, nurses, and other health care providers experience in their practices and feel in their hearts - their emotional highs and lows, their successes, and their failures. It is also hoped that these insights will strengthen communication and increase understanding between patients with epilepsy and the professionals who care for them."--BOOK JACKET.
