TY - CHAP M1 - Book, Section TI - Normal Development and Deviations in Development of the Nervous System A1 - Ropper, Allan H. A1 - Samuels, Martin A. A1 - Klein, Joshua P. A1 - Prasad, Sashank PY - 2019 T2 - Adams and Victor's Principles of Neurology, 11e AB - In this chapter and the next one on aging, we consider the effects of growth, maturation, and aging on the nervous system. These are discussed in some detail because certain aspects of neurologic diseases are meaningful only when viewed against the background of these natural age-linked changes. Developmental diseases of the nervous system, for example, malformations, genetic defects, and other forms of damage that are acquired in the intrauterine period of life, are considered in Chap. 37.
