The '''Clinical and Scientific Basis of Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome''', published as ''The Nightingale Research Foundation Review of The Clinical and Scientific Basis of Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome'', as a classic book about [[myalgic encephalomyelitis]] by Dr [[Byron Hyde]] and other international experts. {{Infobox book | name = The Clinical and Scientific Basis of Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome | image = File:Clinical-and-scientific-basis.jpg | caption = | editors = [[Byron Hyde]] | authors = [[Jay Goldstein]], [[Paul Levine]] | illustrator = | cover_artist = | country = [[Canada]], [[United States]] | language = English | subject = Medical reference, medical research | genre = Medical | publisher = [[Nightingale Research Foundation]] | pub_date = 1992 | media_type = print & digital | pages = 724 | isbn = 978-0969566205, 0-9695662-0-4 | website = https://www.nightingale.ca/publications }} '''The Clinical and Scientific Basis of Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome''' is a large reference book edited by [[Byron Hyde]], [[Jay Goldstein]], and [[Paul Levine]]. The book contains the proceedings from the first international symposium for clinicians and researchers in [[ME/CFS]], held in Cambridge, England in April 1990. The symposium was organized by Dr. Byron Hyde of the [[Nightingale Research Foundation]] and Dr. [[John Richardson]] of the Newcastle Research Group. One of the honorary chairpeople of the symposium, Dr. [[Melvin Ramsay]], who was instrumental in encouraging the idea of the symposium, passed away a few weeks before the symposium was to be held. His prepared remarks were included in the book. From the forward to the book: <blockquote> We have attempted to obtain material in every area of M.E./CFS knowledge, but we have not always been successful. Some information is under copyright and could not be released. Some promised material just never arrived. Scientific knowledge of M.E./CFS is growing so rapidly that we were not always able to keep up with all of the explosive changes in information. To compensate for some of the omissions, Nightingale staff have written review chapters only when an appropriate contributor was not available or the chapter was delayed. These review chapters represent Nightingale's opinions and are not necessarily those of the clinicians and researchers mentioned. Furthermore, in a few cases, we have requested and obtained permission from certain prestigious journals to reproduce works of historical significance. Due to the sheer length of some of the original manuscripts, it was necessary for us to reproduce some of the authors' work in abstract form. </blockquote> A PDF of the book is freely available to download from the Nightingale Research Foundation website.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.nightingale.ca/publications | title = Publications |website=Nightingale Research Foundation| language=en|access-date=2019-09-21}}</ref> ==Publisher's synopsis== ''(This synopsis was provided by the publisher for promotional purposes. For book reviews, please see Links section below.)'' Eighty of the world's leading M.E./CFS authorities have contributed their knowledge to produce a 750-page encyclopedia on the disease process that may be one of the biggest single causes of chronic illness in the world today. Known in the United States as Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and in Great Britain both as Myalgic Encephalomyelitis and Post-Viral Fatigue Syndrome, M.E./CFS has provoked a chronic disabling illness in an estimated 1,000,000 persons in North America and Europe. This book provides, in one superb 75-chapter source, an up-to-date, comprehensive account of current knowledge concerning the history, epidemiology, children with M.E., investigation, virology, immunology, muscle pathology, host response, food intolerance, brain mapping, neurophysiology, neuropsychology, psychiatry, sleep dysfunction, fibromyalgia syndrome, treatment and management. This is an essential reference book for medical, government and public library reference rooms. This text is a unique vehicle for researchers, physicians and other health education and government officials, and is easily understandable by the general public interested in M.E./CFS. ==Contents== *i.
