Synopsis
A comprehensive, interdisciplinary text that describes and explains techniques for diagnosing, evaluating, and rehabilitating patients with minor head injuries. Not an "emergency room book" that deals only with the immediate crisis, it reveals the patient's problems beyond the first moments of injury and initial treatment, and illuminates the long-term effects of minor head trauma. The language is accessible to interested professionals of any background, and the intended audience includes physicians, psychologists, physical therapists, speech- language pathologists, nurses, and attorneys.
