Publisher's Synopsis
This edited volume creates a strong case for the advantages referring to theoretical models in the practice of clinical neuropsychology and demonstrates the need to consider clinical experience in theory building within neuropsychology. Crucial issues in patient assessment and rehabilitation are considered here within a wide range of neuropsychological topics including memory, language, attention, and personality. Background chapters covering neuroanatomical and neurophysiological issues enhance discussions of integrating theory and practice in neuropsychology.
