Cognitive Rehabilitation of Memory: A Clinical-Neuropsychological Introduction comprehensively reviews evidence-based research for each clinical tool, defining guidelines on how to assess patients and set treatment goals and best practices for creating individualized rehabilitation programs. The book also provides essential background knowledge on the nature and causes of memory impairment. Dr. Helmut Hildebrandt describes a wide range of interventions, including memory aids, learning strategies and non-cognitive treatment options

Dr. Helmut Hildebrandt is currently a clinical neuropsychologist in the Department of Neurology at the Hospital Bremen-Ost. Dr. Hildebrandt's clinical work focuses on the rehabilitation of patients with severe cognitive disorders at the early neurological rehabilitation unit and the assessment of patients with neurodegenerative diseases. He also teaches courses on clinical neuropsychology and rehabilitation at the University of Oldenburg and conducts clinical studies with different rehabilitation units in Bremen, Oldenburg, Wilhelmshaven, and Bonn. Furthermore, Dr. Hildebrandt conducts research on the rehabilitation of memory and neurological neglect. He is a former member of the scientific advisory board of the German neuropsychological society (GNP). For the last 10 years, Dr. Hildebrandt has been involved in the development of most of Germany's guidelines concerning neuropsychological assessment and rehabilitation.
