Editat de Michael L. Alosco, Robert A. Stern
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 20 iun 2019

The prevalence of adult cognitive disorders will dramatically rise over the next 25 years due to the aging population. Clinical research on adult cognitive disorders has rapidly evolved, including evidence of new adult cognitive disorders and greater insight into the clinical presentation, mechanism, diagnosis, and treatment of established diseases.

The Oxford Handbook of Adult Cognitive Disorders is an up-to-date, scholarly, and comprehensive volume covering most diseases, conditions, and injuries resulting in impairments in cognitive function in adults. Topics covered include normal cognitive and brain aging, the impact of medical disorders and psychiatric illnesses on cognitive function, adult neurodevelopmental disorders, and various neurological conditions. This Handbook also provides a section on unique perspectives and special considerations for clinicians and clinical researchers, covering topics such as cognitive reserve, genetics, diversity, and neuroethics. Readers will be able to draw upon this volume to facilitate clinical practice (including differential diagnosis, treatment recommendations, assessment practices), and to obtain an in-depth review of current research across a wide spectrum of disorders, provided by leaders in their fields. The Oxford Handbook of Adult Cognitive Disorders is a one-of a kind resource appropriate for both clinicians and clinical researchers, from advanced trainees to seasoned professionals.

Recenzii

This is as close to an exhaustive treatise on adult cognitive disorders as seems possible. Each chapter outlines what is known about the discussed disorder as well as its etiology, symptoms and treatmentsthe result is a veritable diagnostic and treatment manual specific to adult cognitive disorders. The work concludes with a seven-chapter section on perspectives and considerations for the clinical researcher; these chapters should lead to many future directions in the research surrounding these disorders. Highly recommended for professionals and practitioners.
This is a comprehensive look at adult cognitive disorders, written by an international collection of experts in the field. Clinical psychologists, neuropsychologists, and researchers will benefit greatly from this book - 5 Stars!
This unique book will serve as a useful resource for trainees as well as seasoned clinicians and researchers interested in brain-behavior relationships across the spectrum of adult neuromedical conditions.
Drs. Alosco and Stern have produced a tour-de-force of a handbook that should be within easy reach of every clinician and researcher who deals with cognitive disorders. Each chapter, written by an expert in the field, is self-contained but also forms part of a whole that is indispensable for students, clinicians, and researchers. Nowhere else can you get all this information in a single volume.
