Review
"It is my purpose in this book to demonstrate that a host of critical issues in psychology can be illuminated by a thoughtful study of the behavior and testimony of brain damaged individuals."-- Howard Gardner
"An unprecedented and impressive accomplishment in presenting in clear and understandable terms a field of tremendous complexity....No less is attempted, and accomplished, than a portrait of today's neuro-psychologist whose task it is 'to interview and then test the brain damaged patient in a variety of domains.'"
-- Richard M. Restak, New York Times Book Review
"At once moving and carefully analytic."
-- Kenneth A. Klivington, Los Angeles Times
"Step by step, he explains and illustrates, by case example, so what might have been an awesome treatise has become a fascinating book."
-- Jean Dietz, The Boston Globe
"A valuable book...written so that it can be understood by the intelligent layman."
-- Marjorie C. Meehan, M.D.
