Dr. Goldstein is the director and founder of the Clinical Neurocardiology Section at the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke. He has authored over 500 research articles and five books on autonomic disorders and is one of the few doctors in the world who trains other doctors to become autonomic neurologists. You can read the book cover to cover, or focus on the sections you are most interested in. Happy reading!
