Reviews
Over the first five years there have been dramatic developments in the area of sports related traumatic brain injury. From limited technical diagnostic testing we now have progressed to state-of-the-art neuropsychological assessment and brain imaging. This publication is a groundbreaking effort on an international scale and a significant contribution in the evaluation and management of concussion in sports. -- Freddy H. Fu, University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine and University of Pittsburgh Athletic Department. The systematic study of brain injury in sport has provided us with important new insights into the predictors of short-term neuropsychological morbidity, as well as the dynamics of recovery from these injuries. This comprehensive volume by Lovell and colleagues provides a synthesis of what has been learned, the models of assement that have been developed, and the unique challenges that arise in dealing with athletes at various levels of competition. Although focused on sports related brain injury, this book is relevant and important for any professionals working with individuals who suffer from these injuries. -- Robert A. Bornstein, The Ohio State University.
