Ataxia, defining a class of degenerative neurological conditions, affects around 150,000 people in the USA yearly. Ataxia impacts children, adults and the elderly. Ataxia generally is defined as a general problem with coordination and impacts fingers, hands, arms, legs, body, speech and eye movement. The genetic science revolution of the 1990s has dramatically improved our understanding of the cause of ataxias and we now have a solid understanding of ataxias associated with infections, injuries, other diseases, or degenerative changes in the central nervous system. The volume provides a detailed reference on the state of the art science of ataxias. While there is still no direct treatment of ataxia this volume will provide a trusted reference on the genetic and related causes of ataxias and provide a foundation for the search for effective treatments.
