Index

"I recommend this text for mental health professionals unfamiliar
with treating people who have sustained a TBI, as a training tool
for students in rehabilitation disciplines, and for experienced
rehabilitation practitioners. Particularly now that soldiers
from many countries are returning from the Afghanistan and Iraq
wars with brain injuries, this book is necessary reading for
professionals across the globe and especially in the United
Kingdom." (Journal of Head Trauma Rehabilitation, 1 November 2011)

"This book is a "must" for clinicians in the field of
rehabilitation after traumatic brain injury. Andy Tyerman and Nigel
King have brought together contributions by experts who not only
outline theoretical/legal issues relating to service provision,
cognitive rehabilitation, behavioural and emotional interventions,
vocational rehabilitation and family interventions, but ensure that
the chapters' very practical emphasis and case studies, as
well as recommended reading, will make this book enormously helpful
to a wide range of practitioners". Dr Laura Goldstein, Senior
Lecturer in Neuropsychology & Honorary Consultant Clinical
Neuropsychologist, Institute of Psychiatry, London.

"This is a really excellent and useful book that will prove
useful for the entire multidisciplinary team. There are some
excellent review chapters and the whole book is written in a very
clear and easy style. Many congratulations to the editors and the
chapter authors."Professor Michael Barnes, Professor in
Neurological Rehabilitation, Newcastle University and
Northumberland, Tyne and Wear NHS, & President of the World
Federation for Neurorehabilitation.

"Psychological Approaches to Rehabilitation After Traumatic
Brain Injury explores the diversity of clinical presentation of
patients following TBI, the impact on the patient and their
relatives / carers, and the different models and approaches to
rehabilitation. It will be a valuable resource to any professional
working in brain injury." Doreen Rowland, Neuro Services Manager
/ Occupational Therapist, Defence Services Medical Rehabilitation
Centre, Headley Court, Surrey.
