Chapter 1 introduces the area of geriatric neurology, with a focus on understanding and management of the neurologic diseases and disabilities of old age. It also attempts to clarify the distinctions, sometimes fine, between normal neurological changes of aging and pathological changes due to neurological disease or medical disease secondarily affecting the nervous system.
