Hardcover. Principles of Frontal Lobe Function provides a comprehensive review of historical and current research on the functions of the frontal lobes and frontal systems of the brain. The content covers frontal lobe functions from birth to old age, from biochemistry and anatomy to rehabilitation, from normal to disrupted function. Two introductory chapters guide, in different ways, reading of subsequent chapters. Following are a number of chapters dealing withbasic science- neuroanatomy and neurochemistry. The various theoretical positions proposed reflect the diversity of approaches to the same fundamental question about the role of the frontal lobes. Some chaptersdeal with broad, salient issues such as functional heterogeneity versus homogeneity, while others narrow their focus on specific functions like motor control, language, memory and attention, executive functioning, and emotional and social behavior. The book concludes with chapters on applied clinical research such as frontal lobe pathology in neurological diseases and disorders, stroke, and traumatic brain injury, as well as strategies for neurorehabilitation. This book is intended to be astandard reference work on the frontal lobes for researchers, clinicians, and students in the fields of neurology, neuroscience, psychiatry, psychology, and health care. This volume provides a review of historical and current research on the functions of the frontal lobes and frontal systems of the brain. The content spans frontal lobe functions from birth to old age, from biochemistry and anatomy to rehabilitation, and from normal to disrupted function. This item is printed on demand.

Review
. . . highly recommended. It will be essential reading and a standard reference for researchers, teachers and students of the frontal lobes. (Brain, 126)
It cannot be denied that this is an excellent book. It contains all of the topics that one might reasonably ask for, systematically reviewed in the correct sequence . . . Most neuroscientists and clinicians would gain greatly from this book . . . The neuroscience of frontal lobe function and executive function has badly needed a text with the breadth and depth to do justice to the many recent developments in this field, and this book fulfills that role very well. (Neurology)
It will be of utmost interest for neuroscientists, clinicians, psychologists, and all who are interested and working in this exciting field of the neurosciences. From this extraordinary book the reviewer has learned a lot . . . (European Journal of Neurology)
This is an important book for any neurology, neuroscience, or neurosurgery library. (Doody's Journal)
. . . of utmost interest for neuroscientists, clinicians, psychologists and all who are interested and working in this exciting field of neurosciences. From this extraordinary book the reviewer has learned a lot about the anatomy, functions and dysfunctions of the frontal lobes and fronto-subcortical systems. (European Journal of Neurology, Vol 10, Issue 1)
