The authors draw frequently on their own clinical case material and research in brain injury rehabilitation and include clear summaries and definitions throughout. This approach brings the material to life and makes a jargon-heavy subject highly accessible. The book provides an excellent entry point for readers considering careers in neuropsychology, in either research, practice, or both!” Jessica Fish, PhD, DClinPsy, Senior Lecturer in Clinical Neuropsychology and Research Director for Applied/Clinical Neuropsychology Programmes ""Most books on clinical neuropsychology feel like showing someone the human body by laying out organs and bones—disconnected and overwhelming. This one is different: it proves that less is more. By focusing on the essentials, it offers a clear, vivid picture of the field and its professional calling.""
