Description
Clinical Neuropsychology is an up-to-the minute overview of the major and many interesting minor disorders and behavioral
syndromes caused by localized brain damage or abnormal brain functioning. The text combines clinical findings with studies on normal,
healthy individuals to provide a comprehensive picture of the human brain's operation and function. Biological rather than cognitive
in emphasis,
Clinical Neuropsychology integrates findings across a broad range of disciplines. This text serves as an
up-to-date reference source for clinicians, researchers, and graduate students and as a textbook for advanced undergraduate courses on
clinical neuropsychology. Coverage includes the ramifications of localized brain damage/abnormal brain functioning on emotion, thought,
language, and behavior, illustrative case histories, chapter overviews, and more than 700 recent references.
Audience:
Advanced undergraduate and graduate students, academics, and researchers in behavioral, neuropsychological, and neurological fields. Professionals
in the psychological, medical, and paramedical fields.
