Epileptic Syndromes

M. Bureau. Epileptic Syndromes. John Libbey Eurotext ltd 2012. 600 p. The first edition of this book, now better known as the Blue Guide , was published in 1984. It highlighted the various epileptic syndromes which had recently been identified. Most of these syndromes, which constituted a practical and original approach to epilepsy, were subsequently integrated into the international classification for epilepsies in 1989, a classification which, despite some calling into question, still remains valid and useful today.
