"I am pleased to include this text in my library, and I am
confident that it will serve as an excellent resource for years to
come."--PsycCRITIQUES
This book serves as an A-Z reference that addresses the
neuropsychological aspects of 300 neurological, neuropsychiatric,
and neuromedical disorders. Each entry follows a 5 section
structure that will cover (1) essential features of the disorder
(2) physiological basis of the disorder (3) neuropsychological and
other clinical presentation (4) assessment and diagnostic practices
(5) evidence-based treatments and interventions. This book is
written for clinical professionals and students in training to aid
in clinical awareness, diagnostic accuracy, and intervention
successfulness.
The text goes beyond the emotional and behavioral aspects of
each disorder and views the broader impacts of the symptoms. This
approach emphasizes the importance of looking at the other
functional impacts of these manifestations (e.g. cognitive deficits
secondary to depression, orthodopaedic ambulation issues). The
emphasis on neuropsychological sequelae, physiological basis, and
means of diagnosing and treating of 300 conditions across the
lifespan make this the most comprehensive resource available to
professionals in and around neuropsychology, neuropsychiatry and
the behavioral neurosciences. Key Features:
Presents 300 highly-structured entries providing disorder
features, pathology and physiology, clinical representation,
assessment and diagnosis, and evidence-based treatments and
interventions Covers neurological, neuropsychiatric, and
neuromedical disorders across the lifespan (pediatric, adult, and
geriatric populations) Includes interventions and methods of
treatment for the outcomes patients may experience
