Review from previous edition Review from previous edition This textbook provides an ambitious yet successful summary of current knowledge about the clinical neuropsychology of the major neurological and neuropsychiatric disorders. Remarkably, and marking its distinctiveness from other clinical neuropsychology texts, it goes beyond description to incorporate techniques for ameliorating and managing the functional impact of the disorders. This melding of theoretical and practical knowledge in neurology, neuropsychology, and neurorehabilitation will make it an essential text for the practising clinician. * Professor Catherine Mateer, Department of Psychology, University of Victoria, BC, Canada *
Clinical neuropsychologists of all persuasions will find much of practical value and also much to fascinate them in this monumental volume. No other book on clinical neuropsychology comes close in scope or in depth. It will in particular be of inestimable value as a textbook for professional training courses in clinical neuropsychology * Professor Max Coltheart, Macquarie Centre for Cognitive Science, Macquarie University, Sydney, Australia *
I have already bought several expensive Neuroscience books so far, this is the most up to date, upper-grade readers' Neuropsychology book according to my view. * Amazon Customer Reviews *
This book provides a really good overview many neuropsychological tests, providing the reader with the information needed to choose an appropriate measure ... Worth every penny if you are involved in neuropsychological assessment. * Amazon Customer Reviews *
I find this an excellent overview of Neuropsychological Assessment techniques with some nice examples of use. I generally found the book to be well organised, enjoyable to read and comprehensive. * Amazon Customer Reviews *
