Reviews for Preoperative Events: Their Effects on Behavior Following Brain Damage

Schulkin's book is the first to concentrate exclusively on the importance of preoperative events and, in particular, the possibility that preoperative events might protect the organism against the effects of brain damage. As such it is a welcome addition to the literature....This is an interesting and informative book....the book achieves its objective of stimulating further thought... -Neuropsychologia Although an edited text, it is well integrated and concludes with three excellent, albeit brief, summary and synthesis chapters....this text is highly recommended. -Contemporary Psychology
