"a very useful book focusing on commonly used brief cognitive testing instruments that are helpful in screening and monitoring neuropsychiatric disorders. Written and edited by internationally recognized researchers in the field, this book is a valuable contribution to psychiatry, neurology, and neuropsychiatry.
