Editorial Reviews
Review
"Certainly one of the best introductory texts on the topic I have ever used. The text is clear, concise, and written at a level comprehensible to undergraduates, but with enough depth to appeal to senior scholars." --Eugene Emory, PhD, Emory University
"The most concise and clearly written text available in this rapidly expanding field." --V.S. Ramachandran, MD, PhD, University of California, San Diego
"This is an excellent text to introduce students to the field. It includes more clinical case material than most introductory texts, which makes it more interesting to beginning students. The language is clear and concise, and the illustrations are outstanding." --Bill Watson, EdD, University of New Mexico
