Introduction to Neuropsychology Second Edition By: J Graham Beaumont

Author: J. Graham Beaumont

Now in a substantially revised second edition, this outstanding text gives students a solid grounding in clinical and experimental neuropsychology. The author is a leading authority whose engaging writing style and thorough yet concise coverage of brain localization, anatomy, and their links to cognitive function make the book ideal for undergraduate or graduate use. Reflecting over two decades of major advances in the field–including developments in basic science, assessment, rehabilitation, and clinical research–the text features a significant new section on neuroimaging and a new chapter on degenerative diseases and profound brain injury. It is illustrated with more than 60 figures, including six color plates.
