Clinical neuropsychology remains one of the fastest growing specialities within clinical psychology, neurology, and the psychiatric disciplines. Substantially updated, the new edition of this handbook provides a practical guide for those interested in the professional application of neuropsychological approaches and techniques in clinical practice.
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 disordersRemarkably, 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 *
