Reviews
"Mohlman, Deckersbach, and Weissman provide a splendid introduction to the neurocognitive perspective. They have selected top scholars to write thorough, thought-provoking overviews which are highly accessible and informative. Importantly, although this volume is organized around traditional diagnostic categories, it gently forces the reader to think in a transdisciplinary fashion.

Gayle Beck, PhD, Lillian and Morrie Moss Chair of Excellence, Department of Psychology, University of Memphis "This remarkable volume is a bold and much-needed step toward integrating and bridging neuroscience and clinical psychology.

A prime example for a cross-disciplinary approach, this excellent book is a must-read for any scientifically-based mental health care professional." --Stefan G.

The integrative neurocognitive viewpoint of this volume expertly examines theory
