Neuropsychological Assessment

Muriel Lezak Ph.D. is considered to be the Grandmother of Neuropsychology. She is one of the most influential figures in the field. Her book is the cornerstone of the field and has been ever since the first edition. Most clinical neuropsychologists use this book as THE definitive reference guide in the field. The 4th edition was excellent and this 5th edition is even better because it contains quite a bit of new information since the field has been changing and maturing so quickly over the last decade.

I'm training to become a neuropsychologist and this specific book was recommended to me. It has a lot of helpful information and will be a useful resource in the future.

It is a fantastic book and meet the requirement and I am sure that it will help in my daughter's Mphil studies. I have only one complaint about ARAMEX courier service. The book landed in Chennai, India on 7th October and they have delivered the same on 13th October. Me and my daughter have made so many correspondence and phone calls to deliver in the recorded address. 7 days in the same city and the address is one of the leading medical university within 20 KM form ARAMEX office and Chennai airport. It seems they don't have any interest in doing their job. Sorry for writing about the service, Thank you once again sending the book and assure you that we will contact you whenever need areises. Best regards. Philip P Koshy

This book continues to be the bible of neuropsychological testing. I used it when I was teaching a class on assessment and found it to be helpful in rounding out my knowledge of tests and presenting problems that were not in my area of expertise. The level of detail may be somewhat more than what is useful to beginning PhD students, but it could easily be used as a text for a neuropsych-specific course.

Covers extensively enough for advanced neuropsych doctoral students to understand, with most of the undergraduate-level 'noise' filtered out. A basic understanding of brain and behaviour, anatomy and/or physiology would be useful as a prerequisite to this book, but as a doctoral student, it did a great job providing me with the information I need and challenging enough that I'm not bored by the content. It's now my favourite book on my shelf.

It was first recommended to me by my supervisor at the hospital I work in Sao Paulo (Brazil) as one of the fundamental works of neuropsychology. Indeed, it is an excellent base for research and study.

I am a doctoral practicum student. This book easy to read and full of useful information. I debated between this book and a few other clinical neuropsychology texts, but I'm happy I chose this one.

A large book that covers neuroanatomy and neuropsychological assessment extensively and in a reasonably easy-to-read manner. Suitable for beginners only if they have a particular interest and are willing to devote a lot of study time to the book.

Livro completo, com informações sobre o sistema nervoso, clínica neuropsicológica, bem como testes e tarefas para avaliação de pacientes. Enfatiza a perspectiva funcional dos processos mentais, sem deixar de apontar a importância da estrutura cerebral para isso. Recomendo fortemente aos psicólogos que desejam trabalhar com avaliação e reabilitação neuropsicológica.

I'm a beginning student in the world of neuropsychology, and it's a great resource and learning tool.

As always an excellent book and well worth the money spent. it covers all aspects of assessment and treatment. Highly recommend

Como todas sus ediciones, magnífico.

Genial, realmente mi novia cuando lo recibió se puso muy feliz de tener en sus manos el Lezak, así que todo genial. Un saludo.
