The Neuropsychology of Individual Differences: A Developmental Per
spective was designed to sliIVey the complexities and subtleties of
neu rologically based differences in human beings. By
conceptualizing and presenting subject matter in a developmental
sequence, we hoped to emphasize the inseparable union between the
science of neuropsychology and the study of human behavior.
Following a brief introductory chapter, the volume opens with chap
ters concerning critical preliminary questions, such as
establishing a foundation and rationale for a neuropsychological
basis for individual differences and consideration of important
methodological issues. It pro ceeds with discussions of the role of
neuropsychology in the individual's efforts to organize the world
via such basic means as perception and temperament. Three chapters
follow that discuss individual differences in higher cortical
functions: cognitive ability, language, and learning.
Neuropsychological differences between the sexes and in the
expression of psychopathological and neurological conditions
comprise the topics for the next three chapters. The final topical
chapter provides a discussion of rehabilitation of neurological
disorders in children, and the volume concludes with a synthesis of
all contributions.
