Neuroscience 4/e: Fundamentals for Rehabilitation

Neuroscience,4/e: Fundamentals for Rehabilitation


This practical guide connects the theory of neuroscience with real-world clinical application by utilizing first person
accounts of neurological disorders and in-depth case studies. It also provides clear descriptions of a complete range
of neurological disorders. Special features such as "at-a-glance" summaries, pathology boxes, and hundreds of full-
color illustrations, enhance the learning experience and make it easy to master the fundamentals of neuroscience
rehabilitation.
