AB Normal  volitional  control  of  movement  depends  on  the  balanced  relationship  of  the  cortical,  subcortical,  cerebellar,  spinal,  and  peripheral  nervous  systems.  Neurologic  dysfunction  can  result  from  compromise  at  any  point  in  this  balance  resulting  in  motor  or  sensory  impairment,  or  both.  This  chapter  reviews  essential  features  of  common  diseases  encountered  in  neurorehabilitation,  including  amyotrophic  lateral  sclerosis,  Guillain-Barré  syndrome,  polio  and  post-polio  syndrome,  and  Parkinson’s  disease,  with  a  focus  on  diagnosis,  treatment,  and  rehabilitation  for  each  disorder.
