Many patients with stroke, head injuries or dementia suffer severe
memory impairment and in many cases improvement may fail to occur.
This book, first published in 1984 followed by this second edition
in 1992, offers practical guidelines to the problems and is
supported by a discussion of theory about memory systems and
functioning. It should enable therapists and psychologists to
recognize, understand, assess and manage memory problems arising
from injury, accident or infection of the brain. The authors are
well-known for their interest in memory and memory therapy. Topics
covered in this text include: the relationship between memory and
practice, assessment, methods for improving memory, organization of
memory therapy, selection of appropriate treatments for individual
patients, role of the microcomputer in memory rehabilitation, use
of drugs in stimulating memory, development of programmes to
improve attention and the treatment of the memory-impaired in
groups. This second edition has an update on drugs, electronic aids
and assessment procedures, with further evidence of the
effectiveness of memory therapy. This book would have been an asset
for those professionals involved in the rehabilitation of the
impaired memory at the time and can still be of value today.
