"Wilson, a lodestar in the field, and Betteridge, an innovative practitioner, describe the essentials of neurological rehabilitation that is person centered, assessment and formulation based, goal minded, and grounded in the personally meaningful 'real world' of the patient. The book addresses key recovery factors, with a multimodal emphasis on the cognitive, emotional, behavioral, practical, interpersonal, and psychosocial ramifications of acquired brain injuries. Tried-and-true fundamentals are nicely interwoven with cutting-edge therapies and technological advances. The case studies and vignettes add to the applicability of the principles."--Pamela S. Klonoff, PhD, ABPP-CN, Clinical Director and neuropsychologist, Center for Transitional Neuro-Rehabilitation, Barrow Neurological Institute and Dignity Health, Phoenix, Arizona
