"This is an essential guide to the neuropsychological and
neurobehavioral consequence of pediatric diseases for healthcare
providers working with a pediatric population." --Doody's
"This is a well-bound and sturdy, large format text. The page
layout is attractive, and the typeface is easy to read. Tables,
black-and-white illustrations, and figures are used sparingly but
effectively. There is an extensive index that appears to be
accurate and proved useful to the reviewer. Child neurologists and
their trainees will find this a valuable reference." --Pediatric
Neurology
