Product Description

Review
""Professor Parkin's book will be a useful teaching tool. It is enjoyable and easy to read. I especially applaud the effort to bring together evidence from different sources to test hypotheses about cognitive processes. The orchestration of these diverse lines of investigation is the foundation of the emerging field of cognitive science. This effort is one of the primary distinctive features of the text."
-Argye Hillis, Johns Hopkins University."
"I liked this book and will certainly recommend it for the courses I teach. The material is up-to-date and readers are taken to the cutting edge of research in cognitive neuropsychology. The book is written in a clear accessible style, and with humor, and the described appear as real people with concerning difficulties."
-Elaine Funnell, Royal Holloway, University of London."


Product Description
First major text on this topic since late 1980s. Begins with an overview of the subject, following with chapters on blindsight, agnosia, facial processing impairments, and the rapidly growing area of neglect.

4.0 out of 5 stars A global view in a recent science, 15 Dec 2000
By dave (Lisbon, Portugal) - See all my reviews
Although Neuropsychology as a science is quite recent it's advances have been remarkable. New models of memory, language and so on, have been constructed and verified, giving a new breath of air to psychology in general. Apart from this Neuropsychology comes as a bridge between the mind and the brain and between the normal and abnormal.

This book is an introductory and comprehensive text indispensable for all of those who are interested in this final frontier. It is the summary of the "explorations" of these new pioneers, which exorcise the "ghost in the machine" (expression from Daniel Dennet). This reading is guaranteed to destroy myths and activate the imagination.
