Clinical Neuropsychology in the Criminal Forensic Setting (Hardcover)

"The clinical neuropsychologist who ventures into the criminal forensic neuropsychology arena without having studied this volume, in its entirety, will be armed with only a 'wooden sword.' This volume would be useful in any graduate-level psychology and law course. In addition, selected chapters ought to be required reading in all graduate-level psychological assessment classes." - Robert J. McCaffrey, ABPN, ABPdN, Department of Psychology, University at Albany, State University of New York, USA

"Because its applied focus is complemented by an in-depth discussion of legal and clinical issues, this book will prove helpful to neuropsychologists who are new to forensic settings, as well as those who are more experienced. The volume provides a comprehensive review of the legal authority that shapes neuropsychological evaluations in criminal proceedings. It also offers in-depth coverage of all facets of the criminal process in which neuropsychologists can be of assistance to legal decision makers." - Randy K. Otto, Department of Mental Health Law and Policy, University of South Florida, USA

"Denney and his colleagues have provided a comprehensive, critical, and authoritative description of the area of forensic neuropsychology. They are to be congratulated. This book will be a welcome resource for those who teach, train, and practice in this area." - Kirk Heilbrun, Professor and Head, Department of Psychology, Drexel University, USA

"Denney’s unique text is a long-needed contribution and the first to focus exclusively on criminal forensic practice among neuropsychologists. The growing number of forensic practitioners involved in evaluating individuals in a criminal context will benefit greatly from this book. This text will be relied on by veteran experts already practicing in the field, new entrants to this practice, and those who are at the final stages of their training during internship and postdoctoral residency." - Jerry J. Sweet, ABPP-CN, Evanston Northwestern Healthcare and Feinberg School of Medicine, Northwestern University, USA

Meeting a growing need for practitioners, this unique volume brings together leading experts to present the legal and clinical foundations of neuropsychology practice in criminal forensic cases.
