Books in the Human Brain Function: Assessment and Rehabilitation series

The focus of Volume I of the Handbook of Human Brain Function was on basic scientific principles of brain imaging as it relates to the study of human brain function. Such is the status of brain imaging in the study of clinical applications human brain function.

Until recent advents in neuroimaging, the brain had been inaccessible to in vivo visualization, short of neurosurgical procedures or some unfortunate traumatic exposure. Thus, one would take whatever information might be available and infer what regions of the brain were involved but could never actually visualize the brain.

In this volume of the series Human Brain Function: Assessment and Rehabilitation we cover the area of how brain function is assessed with behavioral or neuropsycholog ical instruments.
