| Summary |
"This book covers the dramatic developments that have occurred in basic and clinical neuroscience in an integrated fashion.With contributions from a range of international experts, this is the one essential textbook for clinicians with an interest in cognition and dementia - including neurologists, geriatricians and psychiatrists.A textbook that is more than the sum of its constituent parts, it provides a powerful means of bringing together different aspects of conceptual understanding and factual knowledge in a way that usually can only come after many years in the field." -- Publisher. |
