Synopsis:
The most comprehensive, authoritative reference of its kind, this successful work examines a wide range of acquired, congenital, and developmental brain disorders and their impact on children's neuropsychological functioning. Leading experts present state-of-theart knowledge about how each condition affects the developing brain; the nature and severity of associated cognitive, behavioral, and psychosocial impairments; and effective approaches to clinical evaluation and treatment planning. The second edition has been extensively revised to reflect significant scientific advances and reader feedback. It has an entirely new section (six chapters) on developmental and learning disabilities. Other new chapters cover evidence-based neuropsychological interventions and several medical disorders not covered in the prior edition.
