Spatial neglect is a disorder of space-related behaviour. It is characterized by failure to explore the side of space contralateral to a brain lesion, or to react or respond to stimuli or subjects located on this side. Research on spatial neglect and related disorders has developed rapidly in recent years. These advances have been made as a result of neuropsychological studies of patients with brain damage, behavioural studies of animal models, as well as through functional neurophysiological experiments and functional neuroimaging.

This work summarizes the current state of empirical and theoretical work on impairments of short-term memory (often caused by damage in the left cerebral hemisphere) and contains chapters from virtually every scientist in Europe and North America working on the problem. The chapters present evidence from both normal and brain-damaged patients, providing a comprehensive view of the functional characteristics of auditory-verbal short-term memory and its neurobiological correlates. Two neuropsychological issues are discussed in detail: the specific patterns of immediate memory impairment...

Il volume presenta i lavori di revisione della letteratura relativa alla riabilitazione neuropsicologica effettuati come lavoro preparatorio per la "Consensus Conference "sulla Riabilitazione neuropsicologica che si e tenuta a Siena nel febbraio del 2010 sotto gli auspici di una serie di associazioni e societa scientifiche e professionali. L'approccio usato in modo comune in tutte le revisioni e quello della "evidence-based medicine" che consente di arrivare a delle raccomandazioni sull'efficacia dei diversi trattamenti riabilitativi con un solido ancoraggio nella letteratura scientifica...

The Parietal Lobe, Volume 151, the latest release from the Handbook of Clinical Neurology series, provides a foundation on the neuroanatomy, neurophysiology and clinical neurology/neuropsychology of the parietal lobe that is not only applicable to both basic researchers and clinicians, but also to students and specialists who are interested in learning more about disorders brought on by damage or dysfunction. Topics encompass the evolution, anatomy, connections, and neurophysiology, the major neurological and neuropsychological deficits and syndromes caused by damage, the...
