Volume 7 complements Volume 6 and focusses on language, memory, attention, mood and noncognitive aspects of behavior. Additional chapters deal with academic disorders (dyslexia and dyscalculia), and with epilepsy, autism and childhood psychosis. The book will keep all scientists working in the field of neuropsychology abreast of recent developments, and points to future paths to be explored in this rapidly expanding area.
