About this title

Review

'It is exhaustive and makes us very conscious that a focal brain lesion affects not only our faculties of speaking, thinking and moving, but also our emotional reactions... this book is a 'must' for professionals or medical students interested in the relationships between the brain and behavioral disorders.' European Neurology

'This book is an excellent reference work for a wide variety of family practitioners, psychiatrists, physicians and neurologists. The subject is extremely difficult and the book is unique in that the editors and many of the authors are neurologists.' JARD

'... there is no comparable text that covers this important topic.' British Journal of Psychiatry

'The overall standard of production is first-rate ... the editors seem to have found a real gap in the current book market. Their book deserves to be widely read and should be a definitive reference source for some time.' British Journal of Neurosurgery

'... a valuable survey of current research.' Neuroradiology
