The Black Book of Neuropsychology

Zusatztext

Quite simply, this is an essential training tool for those learning neuropsychology. It provides a concise yet academically rigorous overview of clinical neuropsychology from a presenting syndrome or symptoms approach. Because clinical neuropsychology practice necessitates an understanding of functional neuroanatomy, a basic review is provided along with a description of a basic neurobehavioral examination. This book is not meant to supplant the longer, more encompassing texts of clinical neuropsychology or neurology. Rather, it supplements these textbooks as a concise and user-friendly reference guide. The unifying thread for this book is the practical approach to assessing a clinical problem (sign, symptom, or complaint) and applying an algorithmic rationale to the associated brain-behavior relationship. Thus, it is designed to be a practical book for the daily practice of clinical neuropsychology.
