Neuropsychological rehabilitation is increasingly recognized as an essential component of health care for brain-injured patients. Yet at a time of rapid growth in the field, many questions remain about the optimal structure and content of clinical services and the efficacy of particular interventions. This volume reviews the state of the science of neuropsychological interventions, describing the ideas and methods that underlie treatment development and evaluation. A framework for multidimensional rehabilitation services is established in chapters from an array of leading clinical investigators. Weighing the strengths and limitations of existing work, and identifying promising directions for new clinical applications, the book provides vital knowledge for anyone working in or studying this dynamic area of practice.
