The Behavioral and Cognitive Neurology of Stroke

The care of stroke patients has changed dramatically in recent years.
As well as improvements in the emergency care of the condition, there
have been marked advances in our understanding, management and
rehabilitation of residual deficits. This book is about the care of
stroke patients, focusing on behavioral and cognitive problems. It
provides a comprehensive review of the field covering the diagnostic
value of these conditions in the acute and later phases, their
requirements in terms of treatment and management and the likelihood
and significance of long-term disability. This book will appeal to
all clinicians involved in the care of stroke patients, as well as to
neuropsychologists, other rehabilitation therapists and research
scientists investigating the underlying neuroscience.
