Description
The second edition of this comprehensive textbook for students of Neuropsychology provides a thorough overview of the complex relationship between brain and behaviour. With an excellent blend of clinical, experimental, and theoretical coverage, it draws on the latest research findings from neuroscience, cognitive neuroscience, neurochemistry, clinical neuropsychology, and neuropsychology to offer students new insights in this fast-moving field.
The book is organised around the main neuropsychological disorders in areas such as perception, executive dysfunction, attention, memory, cerebral asymmetry, language, emotion, and consciousness. There is a clear emphasis on bridging the gap between theory and practice, with links throughout to clinical issues of both assessment and rehabilitation, building a clear understanding of the application of theoretical issues. The final section in each chapter illustrates the importance of a more systematic approach to intervention, which takes into account theoretical views of recovery from brain damage.
New to this edition:
- A new chapter format that includes a "basic topic" section containing up-to-date essential knowledge of the topic and a "further topics" section for a more advanced treatment of the area.
- A new section on neuroscientific approaches to rehabilitation in each chapter to create links between scientific knowledge and clinical treatment.
- A brand new chapter on consciousness.
- A new full colour layout with increased pedagogical features, including key terms, section summaries, βstudy questionsβ, and improved presentation of figures and brain diagrams.
- A companion website including related web links, guidance on answering the βstudy questionsβ, and flashcards.
This book will be invaluable for undergraduate students in Neuropsychology and for those who wish to advance into various clinical fields.
