Review

"...essential in every sense...deserves to be read by all those working with people with memory disorders ..." (Clinical Psychology, No.45, January 2005)

"...highly recommended as a concise and clinically relevant text to which practitioners can turn for authoritative views ... this text could readily serve as a reference in the teaching of memory disorders at the graduate or post-graduate level." (Journal of the International Neuropsychological Society, May 2005)

"...this resource really is imperative for any clinican working in research, assessment, and rehabilitation of memory disorders." (British Journal of Clinical Psychology, 21st July 2005)

"...has some great strengths that must definitely be praised as they are rare to find...a very useful book on the shelf of those having a clinical or...a scientific interest in memory disorders..." (Psychological Medicine, Vol 35, 2005)
