McKay Moore Sohlberg, PhD, CCC-SLP, Communication Disorders and Sciences Program, University of Oregon A highly readable book that will engage the interests of a wide range of rehabilitation professionals. Each chapter thoughtfully echoes an underlying emphasis on holistic care, resulting in a unique contribution to the rehabilitation literature. Presented in the context of foundational scientific evidence, and integrating specific clinical guidance with worksheets and case illustrations, this book is immediately applicable to clinical care.

Jennifer J. Vasterling, PhD, Chief of Psychology, VA Boston Healthcare System; Professor of Psychiatry, Boston University School of Medicine These pioneers and master practitioners of brain injury rehabilitation have produced an incredibly beneficial and practical workbook that will allow highly effective approaches to rehabilitation to become widely available across the globe. The science is excellent, the clinical practice state of the art, and the humane whole-person approach worthy of great admiration. There is nothing else like this
if you work with even one brain-injured person, you have to have this workbook.
Ian H. Robertson, PhD, Global Brain Health Institute, Trinity College Dublin, Ireland It is refreshing to find a book that addresses both theoretical and practical aspects of cognitive rehabilitation, including practical examples of the critical role that cognitive deficits play in everyday life. Particularly useful tools and strategies for compensating for deficits associated with specific brain functions are reinforced throughout the book. This is an excellent resource for everyone from students to seasoned therapists looking to expand their skills. It is especially pleasing that the book discusses vitally important factors
such as mood, identity, and fatigue
that are often overlooked in the rehabilitation process.
