To study the phenomenon of disease To study the phenomenon of disease without books is to sail an uncharted without books is to sail an uncharted sea, while to study books, without sea, while to study books, without patients is not to go to sea at all.patients is not to go to sea at all.

DEFINITIONDEFINITION

Movement disorders can be defined as Movement disorders can be defined as neurologic syndromes in which there is neurologic syndromes in which there is either an excess of movement or either an excess of movement or paucity of voluntary and automatic paucity of voluntary and automatic movements, unrelated to weakness or movements, unrelated to weakness or spasticity.spasticity.
