Reviews

< Drs. Stucky and Bush have assembled a comprehensive guide for case conceptualization in clinical neuropsychology that addresses a critical need in the field. A 'must-have' resource for neuropsychologists in training (and their supervisors). . . . [T]he book emphasizes critical thinking skills necessary for competence in clinical neuropsychology-tools that are ultimately the most important in the clinician's repertoire.> * E. Mark Mahone, PhD, ABPP, Kennedy Krieger Institute, Johns Hopkins University * < This is the book I wished I had when I was going through the board certification process! Drs. Stucky and Bush have made a major contribution to the education of clinical neuropsychologists. In The Neuropsychology Fact-Finding Casebook, they not only provide a broad range of 24 cases but offer practical guidance in approaching the fact-finding examination.> * Scott Millis, PhD, Professor, Wayne State University School of Medicine and Director of Research, Rehabilitation Institute of Michigan * < Stucky and Bush have provided a unique and easy-to-use set of materials to provide both those in training, as well as those providing supervision or mentoring, with applied didactic experiences in the area of clinical neuropsychological case formulation. This is a timely and important contribution that fills a gap in the field by offering systematic ways to pursue 'fact finding' in an evidence-based manner. Both the diversity and the graded level of complexity of the cases make the book attractive to a wide range of practitioners. It will be a go-to resource for all who want to improve their competencies in case conceptualization, differential diagnosis, and treatment planning.> * Jacobus Donders, PhD, ABPP, Chief Psychologist, Mary Free Bed Rehabilitation Hospital *
