Rare Conditions, Diagnostic Challenges, and Controversies in Clinical Neuropsychology Out of the Ordinary

"This excellent book is, in equal parts, fascinating and instructive! So much of our neuropsychological knowledge has emerged from the study of rare conditions and this book continues this vital tradition. By developing a deep understanding of a wide range of rare conditions, diagnostic challenges and controversial issues, we also improve our knowledge of how to manage conditions that are more common in clinical practice. I really enjoyed reading this book and thoroughly recommend it!"

Jon Evans, Professor of Clinical Neuropsychology, University of Glasgow

"This exceptional text is both groundbreaking and instructive. The detailed and clear presentation of rare cases accompanied by assessment findings, treatment protocols, theoretical implications and patient perspectives provides a roadmap for how to approach complex cases. The work of every clinician and researcher working to enhance the lives of individuals with challenging neurological conditions will be positively impacted by reading this volume and applying its concepts."

McKay Moore Sohlberg, PhD, University of Oregon

"An important text on the complexities of diagnosis in neuropsychology with fascinating case histories by leaders in the field."

Ian Robertson, Global Brain Health Institute, Trinity College Dublin

"Many of these authors [involved in this book] are experts in their respective fields and work in a variety of settings, from NHS to independent sector to private practice, in traditional neuroscience or neurorehabilitation centres, but also within neurodevelopmental, older adult, mental health, aviation, academic, and medicolegal contexts. Such a variety of authors and settings, as well as the range of conditions and issues covered represent considerable strengths of the book... I have no hesitation recommending this book to all neuropsychologists as well as other clinicians working in these areas."
