As the third leading cause of death in the United States, stroke accounts for one in every fifteen deaths and is the major cause of disability in the country. Compiled by a renowned editorial team, this reference bridges the gap between basic science and patient care protocols, and collects 43 expertly written chapters that range from laboratory-based research on animal models to the progression, mechanisms, treatment, and prognosis of diseases such as subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), focal ischemic stroke, and global cerebral ischemia.

"…The guiding philosophy of the present volume, assembled under the wise editorship of Drs. Bhardwaj, Alkayed, Kirsch, and Traystman, is to emphasize translationally important topic areas in cerebrovascular disease, where advances at the bench lead to advances at the bedside….Taken together, the contributors to this timely volume offer the reader a rich menu to savor. Clinician-investigators will benefit from its breadth and depth."-Myron D. Ginsberg, M.D., University of Miami Miller School of Medicine, Florida, U.S.A. (from the foreword)
