New: Memory Rehabilitation: Integrating Theory and Practice
"Who else but Barbara Wilson, the world's leading expert on memory rehabilitation, could have written a book like this?

In an age when war has made traumatic brain injury tragically familiar, Wilson explains the complex ways in which memory processing is prone to failure in this and other nonprogressive brain disorders, and shows how everyday functioning can be improved by rehabilitation techniques that focus on compensation and coping." - Myrna F. Schwartz, Associate Director, Moss Rehabilitation Research Institute, Philadelphia
