Clinical Neuropsychological Assessment
Author: Robert L. Mapou
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1475797095
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 398
Book Description
Practicing neuropsychologists and students in clinical neuropsychology must increas ingly cross disciplinary boundaries to understand and appreciate the neuroanatomical, neurophysiological, and neuropharmacological bases of cognition and behavior, cur rent cognitive theory in many different domains of functioning, and the nature and tools of clinical assessment. Although the cognitive functions and abilities of interest are often the same, each of these fields has grappled with them from sometimes very different perspectives. Terminology is often specific to a particular discipline or ap proach, methods are diverse, and the goals or outcomes of study or investigation are usually very different. This book poises itself to provide a largely missing link between traditional approaches to assessment and the growing area of cognitive neuropsy chology. Historically, neuropsychology had as its central core the consideration of evidence from clinical cases. It was the early work of neurologists such as Broca, Wernicke, Hughlings-Jackson, and Liepmann, who evaluated and described the behavioral cor relates of prescribed lesions in individual patients and focused investigation on the lateralization and localization of cognitive abilities in humans. An outgrowth of those approaches was the systematic development of experimental tasks that could be used to elucidate the nature of cognitive changes in individuals with well-described brain lesions.

One Thing and Another
Author: Jonathan Miller
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1783197463
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 639
Book Description
'Do you sometimes think that you might wish that you were a national treasure, like Alan Bennett?' 'I'm rather glad I'm not. I'm quite pleased to be what I think I am, which is a sort of national liability.' Over the course of seven decades, Jonathan Miller has been at the forefront of developments in theatre, opera, comedy, philosophy and scientific debate. This new collection brings together the very best of his acerbic writing. In keeping with Miller's grasshopper mind, One Thing and Another leaps from discussions of human behaviour, atheism, satire, cinema and television, to analysis of the work of M. R. James, Lewis Carroll, Charles Dickens and Truman Capote, by way of reflections on directing Shakespeare, Chekhov, Olivier and opera. A celebrated conversationalist, the book also features a selection of key interviews focusing on his working method. Jonathan Miller is internationally celebrated as one of the last great public intellectuals. Read One Thing and Another to find out why.

Aphasia
Author: Argye Elizabeth Hillis
Publisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 0128234792
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 338
Book Description
Aphasia, Volume 185 covers important advances in our understanding of how language is processed in the brain and how lesions or degeneration in the left hemisphere affect language processing. This new release reviews research regarding how language recovers from brain injury, along with new interventions developed to enhance recovery, including language rehabilitation, noninvasive brain stimulation and medications. Sections cover neuroanatomy and neurophysiology of language networks, focus on mechanisms of recovery (and decline) of language, and include chapters on intervention, including recently developed behavioral therapies, brain stimulation, medications, and a review of studies of treatment for both post-stroke aphasia and primary progressive aphasia. Summarizes advances made in understanding language processing Discusses how lesions and brain degeneration affect language production and comprehension Identifies language networks based on functional imaging and lesion mapping Provides interventions for recovery, including brain stimulation, behavioral interventions and medication Explores post-stroke aphasia and primary progressive aphasia
