I'm a first year graduate student studying clinical neuropsychology, and this book was a required text for the course. I have limited training and experience in the field so the book presents many new ideas an concepts. Medical terminology is used throughout the book, so I usually google the words I don't know or need further clarification on.

If you have limited knowledge of the sturctures and functions of the brain, I'd recommend a supplementary text with photos/diagrams of anatomical regions.

I gave the book a 4 because I think it would benefit from more photos and diagrams of the regions discussed. Rather than being told that conduction aphasia results from a lesion on the arcuate fasciculus that connects Broca's to Wernicke's area, I'd like to see it. Well, I did, just not in this text.
