It has been said more than once in psychology that one person's
effect is another person's error term. By minimising and
occasionally ignoring individual and group variability cognitive
psychology has yieled many fine achievements. However, when
investigators are working with special populations, the subjects,
and the unique nature of the sample, come into focus and become the
goal in itself. For developmental psychologists, gerontologists and
psychopathologists, research progresses with an eye on their target
populations of study. Yet every good study in any of these domains
inevitably has another dimension. Whenever a study is designed to
turn a spotlight on a special population, the light is also shed on
the mainstream from which the target deviates.
This book examines what we can learn about general and universal
phenomena in cognition and its brain substrates from examining the
odd, the rare, the transient, the exceptional and the abnormal.
