Paediatric Neuropsychology within the Multidisciplinary Context [Hardcover]

Paediatric Neuropsychology within the Multidisciplinary Context is a practitioner handbook with chapters co-written by academics and clinicians. The book will offer a fresh perspective on neuropsychological theory and its influence on clinical practice. Case studies are described alongside research and theory as a clear demonstration of how neuroscience can drive formulation in paediatric neuropsychology. The book has been divided into three parts. The focus for the first two sections is on (i) sensory and then (ii) cognitive processes, with the final section on (iii) important factors that influence formulation. Chapters aim to take a process-oriented approach rather than describing a specific syndrome/condition.
