Review

"The selected cases are extremely well presented, rich in detail, and unmatched in the presentation of the human aspect of neurological diseases...The cases are well-described samples of typical syndromes, and thus contribute significantly to clinical training...[Author's] approach...is systematic, logical, and illustrates sound clinical reasoning."--Journal of the International Neuropsychological Society
