We all know how disabling a stroke can be, but there is good news. Recent medical advances improve the chances of prevention, and of recovering after a stroke. Find out about these new treatments, and what you, as carer or patient can do to spot the warning signs, prevent an attack, or, in the event of a stroke, to restore speech and movement from this informative book. Tom Smith will also give you valuable advice for coping with the impact on family life and the emotional strain that a stroke can cause.

Tom Smith is a family doctor and award-winning medical journalist who has written many Sheldon books including Coping Successfully with your Hiatus Hernia (1997), Heart Attacks – Prevent and Survive (1995) and Living with Alzheimer's Disease (2000). He lives in Ayrshire, Scotland and is involved with the Chest, Heart and Stroke Association, Scotland.
