Third Edition
by Sharon A. Gutman
Traditionally, neuroscience is the most difficult area for a student to grasp in the rehabilitation profession. Quick Reference Neuroscience for Rehabilitation Professionals: The Essential Neurologic Principles Underlying Rehabilitation Practice provides this complex information in a quick, easy-to-use format that every student and clinician must have!
Quick Reference Neuroscience for Rehabilitation Professionals
is written specifically for the rehabilitation professional and
student. The text is written in a simplistic, bulleted-outlined format
with accompanying full-page, color illustrations that enhance
understanding of the subject matter. Clinical correlates are discussed
to provide a greater understanding of the common pathological disorders
that occur in response to damage to specific neuroanatomical structures.
In addition to a basic understanding of neuroanatomical structures and
functions, the book provides an easy-to-read discussion of the essential
neuroscience information necessary for the rehabilitation professional
and student.
