The Little Black Book of Neuropsychology: A Syndrome-Based Approach Mike R. Schoenberg and James G. Scott, editors From translating the patient’s medical records and test results to providing recommendations, the neuropsychological evaluation incorporates the science and practice of neuropsychology, neurology, and psychological sciences. The Little Black Book of Neuropsychology brings the practice and study of neuropsychology into concise step-by-step focus—without skimping on scientific quality. This one-of-a-kind assessment reference complements standard textbooks by outlining signs, symptoms, and complaints according to neuropsychological domain (such as memory, language, or executive function), with descriptions of possible deficits involved, inpatient and outpatient assessment methods, and possible etiologies. Additional chapters offer a more traditional approach to evaluation, discussing specific neurological disorders and diseases in terms of their clinical features, neuroanatomical correlates, and assessment and treatment considerations. Chapters in psychometrics provide for initial understanding of brain-behavior interpretation as well as more advanced principles for neuropsychology practice including new diagnostic concepts and analysis of change in performance over time. For the trainee, beginning clinician or seasoned expert, this user-friendly presentation incorporates ‘quick reference guides’ throughout which will add to the practice armamentarium of beginning and seasoned clinicians alike. Key features of The Black Book of Neuropsychology: Concise framework for understanding the neuropsychological referral. Symptoms/syndromes presented in a handy outline format, with dozens of charts and tables. Review of basic neurobehavioral examination procedure. Attention to professional issues, including advances in psychometrics and diagnoses, including tables for reliable change for many commonly used tests. Special “Writing Reports Like You Mean It” section and guidelines for answering referral questions. Includes appendices of practical information, including neuropsychological formulary. The Little Black Book of Neuropsychology is an indispensable resource for the range of practitioners and scientists interested in brain-behavior relationships. Particular emphasis is provided for trainees in neuropsychology and neuropsychologists. However, the easy to use format and concise presentation is likely to be of particular value to interns, residents, and fellows studying neurology, neurological surgery, psychiatry, and nurses. Finally, teachers of neuropsychological and neurological assessment may also find this book useful as a classroom text. "There is no other book in the field that covers the scope of material that is inside this comprehensive text. The work might be best summed up as being a clinical neuropsychology postdoctoral residency in a book, with the most up to date information available, so that it is also an indispensable book for practicing neuropsychologists in addition to students and residents…There is really no book like this available today. It skillfully brings together the most important foundations of clinical neuropsychology with the 'nuts and bolts' of every facet of assessment. It also reminds the more weathered neuropsychologists among us of the essential value of neuropsychological assessment…the impact of the disease on the patient’s cognitive functioning and behavior may only be objectively quantified through a neuropsychological assessment." Arch Clin Neuropsychology (2011) first published online June 13, 2011 Read the full review acn.oxfordjournals.org “...The authors have truly reached their goal of making this book useful for a wide variety of professionals at different stages in their career. In relation to neuropsychologists there is something for everyone, from the graduate student, to the clinician studying for the ABPP/ABCN examination, to the seasoned professional who is seeking out a good refresher on various topics pertinent to neuropsychology. With the wealth of information it provides, the title of this book, The Little Black Book of Neuropsychology seems almost an oxymoron, as the information it offers is anything but little”. The Clinical Neuropsychologist, 2011, 25 (8), 1429-1431 first published online Nov 3, 2011

Vanaf het einde van de 18de eeuw speculeren medische wetenschappers over het bestaan van een `moreel orgaan' of een `ethisch centrum' in het brein. Aangemoedigd door medische ontdekkingen, opmerkelijke klinische casussen of mentale aandoeningen en nieuwe technologieën hadden zelfs vooraanstaande neurowetenschappers, waaronder Paul Flechsig, Arthur Van Gehuchten en Oskar Vogt, de ambitie om moraliteit in het menselijk brein te lokaliseren. In hun publicaties leest men allerlei ernstige voorstellen. Niettemin was die hele onderneming ook onderwerp van spot: critici vonden dit een frenologische droom die tot mislukken was gedoemd; zij noemden die pogingen belachelijk, grotesk of tijdverlies, het ganse project getuigde van wetenschappelijke onbekwaamheid. Vandaag is het onderzoek naar het morele brein terug. Op dit ogenblik brengen specialisten wereldwijd met behulp van nieuwe beeldtechnieken hersenprocessen in kaart die ze verantwoordelijk achten voor het opwekken van morele gevoelens, het verwerven van sociale kennis of het totstandkomen van antisociaal gedrag. Momenteel weet niemand welke richting dit onderzoek uitgaat. Volgt er opnieuw een ontgoocheling of volgt er een echte doorbraak waardoor menselijke moraliteit in de toekomst een medisch manipuleerbaar verschijnsel wordt?Dit boek brengt de geschiedenis van de zoektocht naar de plaats van de moraal tussen 1800 en 1930. Deze studie vertelt over hoe het oude geweten een moreel zintuig werd en plaatst de vaak verrassende lokalisaties van onze moraal in hun historische context. Dit boek handelt over de noms nauwe grens tussen wetenschap en sciencefiction in een project dat fang vergeten onderzoekers deed en eigentijdse nog steeds doet dromen

Il libro copre un settore, quello della applicazione delle moderne tecniche di neuroscienze ai settori dell’economia e del marketing, di recente nascita e di grande interesse per l’opinione pubblica, per gli addetti alla pubblicità nonché agli studiosi di neuroscienze. Il libro presenta, in un linguaggio piano e non per gli esperti della materia, la struttura ed il funzionamento cerebrale (così come si conosce ad oggi) durante i processi decisionali nell’uomo. Di interesse l’analisi di come i diversi sistemi neuronali all’interno del cervello possono cooperare fra loro nel generare delle decisioni. Tutta questa semplice trattazione fisiologica è inserita nel contesto dell’analisi dell’attività cerebrale durante la visione di clip commerciali. Nello studio originale presentato in questo libro, le variabili interessate sono state quelle relative al ricordo della pubblicità televisiva in un campione di soggetti normali giovani. Questo studio è semplicemente il primo che si effettua di tale tipo in Italia e sarà destinato ad essere un punto di riferimento per i successivi studi nel settore.
