About this title

Review:

This book presents significant cases in neuropsychology, some over a century old, which have impacted our understanding of brain damage and its effects. It is a follow-up to the first volume, published in 1996. These books help us understand the relationship between brain functioning and behaviour a little better. Since these are classic cases, our learning is enhanced because important principles were established as mysteries were explored and understood. The purpose is to include classic cases in neuropsychology which have made a significant impact in the scientific community and still have relevance today. These are worthy objectives that the book meets. - Gary B. Kaniuk, Cermak Health Services, in Doody's Review

The book makes an excellent partner to Classic Cases in Neuropsychology ... I would recommend both volumes to undergraduates on neuropsychology courses and to colleagues with a practical, intellectual or historical interest in neuropsychology and the discipline's most familiar method of study. - G. Neil Martin, Middlesex University
