Overview
"The 4th edition is every bit as wonderful as the preceding 3, only with much more information...It is a wonderful clinical guide with clear descriptions of pathophysiology and application of modern technology for diagnosis."--Lewis P. Rowland, M.D., Columbia University Medical Center"No book in any area of clinical neurology has paralleled the dominance of Plum and Posner. The Fourth Edition will sustain this preeminence and is a must for neurologists, neurosurgeons, intensivists, and emergency room physicians. We should all be grateful to the authors for presenting us with this updated gem."--Robert B. Daroff, MD, Department of Neurology, Case Western Reserve University, University Hospitals Case Medical Center"Fred Plum and Jerome Posner wrote the first edition ofThe Diagnosis of Stupor and Comato provide practical guidance and the current edition is an admirable and pleasing successor. On the basis of pedigree, coherence, and thoroughness, it is currently the last word on the subject."--New EnglandJournal of Medicine"Plum and Posner's book...exceeded those traditional territories and included the study of a wide range of endocrine and metabolic disorders...This is a great book and a fitting tribute to him who inspired it."--Brain"Plum and Posners Diagnosis of Stupor and Comais an essential text for the practicing neurologist, for the general intensivist or hospitalist, for the neurointensivist or neurosurgeon, and for the many students, residents, and fellows in the neurosciences. It stands the test of time, highlighting the legacy of Drs Plum and Posner, who have contributed so much to the field of neurology and to the training of generations of neurologists."--Wade Smith, Annals of Neurology"This is an excellent text, and the substantial changes since the third edition easily justify the purchase of a new copy."--Doody's"A necessity for all trainees involved in the care of the stuporous or comatose patient. This volume provides a clear framework from which to approach these clinical situations, and is highly recommended for neurosurgery residents and attendings alike."--Journal of Neurosurgery"Over 50 years after its first edition, this book remains a gem among neurological monographs. Beyond maintaining a contemporary status, it has matured like good wine, improving over time to provide the reader with the best available summary of disorders of consciousness available on the market today...It belongs in every personal and institutional library."--European Neurology"The book is a treasure trove of information, one of those books I will always be learning from...Everyone interested in the clinical aspects of disorders of consciousness should own a copy of this book."--Journal of Neurology, Neurosurgery, and Psychiatry"The book is very readable and carefully arranged, and an appropriate index allows relevant content to be found quickly. The well-balanced selection of illustrations, including computed tomographic and magnetic resonance images, enriches the content and the graphics aid understanding...The fourth edition represents an excellent portrayal of the complex subject of consciousness disorders."--Archives of Neurology"The 4th edition is every bit as wonderful as the preceding 3, only with much more information...It is a wonderful clinical guide with clear descriptions of pathophysiology and application of modern technology for diagnosis."--Lewis P.

  • Item(s) returned to us that were not a result of our error.

You should expect to receive your refund within four weeks of giving your package to the return shipper, however, in many cases you will receive a refund more quickly. This time period includes the transit time for us to receive your return from the shipper (5 to 10 business days), the time it takes us to process your return once we receive it (3 to 5 business days), and the time it takes your bank to process our refund request (5 to 10 business days).

If you need to return an item, please Contact Us with your order number and details about the product you would like to return. We will respond quickly with instructions for how to return items from your order.


Shipping Cost


We'll pay the return shipping costs if the return is a result of our error (you received an incorrect or defective item, etc.). In other cases, you will be responsible for paying for your own shipping costs for returning your item. Shipping costs are non-refundable. If you receive a refund, the cost of return shipping will be deducted from your refund.

Depending on where you live, the time it may take for your exchanged product to reach you, may vary.

If you are shipping an item over $75, you should consider using a trackable shipping service or purchasing shipping insurance. We don’t guarantee that we will receive your returned item.
