This textbook on neuropsychology, now in its second edition, has been expanded to include advances in this field since the first edition was published some 25 years ago. Beaumont, head of the Department of Clinical Psychology at the Royal Hospital for Neuro-disability in London, addresses brain localization and anatomy as it relates to cognitive functions. This new edition, written for undergraduate and graduate students of psychology, also covers neuroimaging techniques and recent progress in the treatment of profound brain injury.
