Reviews for Cognitive Neurorehabilitation: Evidence and Application

'... in this second edition of the already excellent text Cognitive Neurorehabilitation: Evidence and Application, interested readers have an invaluable resource for the empirical and theoretical bases of cognitive neurorehabilitation that will provide practitioners, researchers, and those in training with the foundations to know the difference between that which is based in science and what is wishful thinking. ... this new edition should not be viewed simply as an update. Rather, it is a timely and much needed contribution to the literature.' Journal of the International Neuropsychological Society Targeted at clinicians involved in the hands-on rehabilitation of patients with neurological damage, particularly neuropsychologists, occupational therapists, and physicians....easy to read and reference, thanks to frequent subsections with bulleted points and a concluding section at the end of each chapter.....Overall, this second edition provides a fruitful review of the state of neurorehabilitation techniques. --Doody's Review Service
