Overall, this text is excellent, beautifully formatted, and contains many chapters on mild traumatic brain injury that would prove helpful to professionals working in this field. While the text is probably most suited for a graduate level class in a university curriculum, I think it would be an excellent resource for the practicing professional's library--the forensic expert, the life care planner, or the rehabilitation counselor. --The Rehabilitation Professional

[This] book will provide a valuable resource to neuropsychologists and non-neuropsychologists alike for many years into the future as the primary, one-stop shopping bank vault of information relating to symptom validity assessment in the very specialized world of mild traumatic brain injury. --Psychological Injury and Law

The book is well written, engaging, and easy to read. It goes well beyond simply reviewing validity test literature, as numerous clinical issues related to both mTBI and validity testing are discussed, validity assessment in multiple clinical and forensic settings is described, and up-to-date research findings are provided. I would recommend this book to any clinician (or clinician in training) who wants a practical guide specifically devoted to integrating validity assessment techniques and outcomes into clinical work. --Archives of Clinical Neuropsychology

This edited book is clearly the best in the field among the several that have just come out on the topic. The chapter authors are leaders in the field, and touch all important areas. The chapters form a logical sequence that make learning about the field easier, are well-written, and are filled with up-to-date scientific findings that will help practitioners navigate well this difficult area of neuropsychological forensic practice. I recommend the book without reservation and am sure it will be useful in guiding neuropsychological assessments and preparations for court.
