Editorial Reviews
Review
'This book provides a valuable overview of the field for those whose practice might bring them into contact with people with epilepsy. For those already working in the field, the book provides a helpful resume of those areas that complement this particular specialism.' - British Journal of Psychiatry

'[This book] provides a highly competent coverage of an important but all too often neglected issue. It is a volume that deserves to be widely read and consulted and the editors are to be congratulated on a job well done.' - British Journal of Health Psychology

Product Description
It is becoming increasingly recognized that epilepsy is no longer the sole domain of the medical profession. Particularly, over recent years the contribution made by psychologists to the understanding and treatment of this disorder has developed enormously. Experts in the field provide a review of the latest research findings, addressing those psychological aspects of epilepsy that are important for both assessment and management.
