Produktbeschreibung
The Parietal Lobe, Volume 151, the latest release from the Handbook of Clinical Neurology series, provides a foundation on the neuroanatomy, neurophysiology and clinical neurology/neuropsychology of the parietal lobe that is not only applicable to both basic researchers and clinicians, but also to students and specialists who are interested in learning more about disorders brought on by damage or dysfunction. Topics encompass the evolution, anatomy, connections, and neurophysiology, the major neurological and neuropsychological deficits and syndromes caused by damage, the potential for improvement via transcranial stimulation, and the role of the parietal in the cerebral networks for perception and action.
Autorenporträt
Giuseppe Vallar, MD, is a neurologist, Professor of Psychobiology and Physiological Psychology in the Department of Psychology, and a member of the NeuroMi, Milan Center for Neuroscience, of the University of Milano-Bicocca, Milan, Italy; he is the head of the Neuropsychological Laboratory of the IRCCS Italian Auxological Institute. He has worked in the Universities of Milano, and Sapienza in Rome. His main interests concern human neuropsychology, particularly: spatial and bodily cognition, their disorders (unilateral spatial neglect, somatoparaphrenia), and their neural correlates; the modulation of higher cognitive functions by sensory and transcranial magnetic and electrical stimulation; short-term (immediate) verbal memory, its disorders after brain damage, and its neural correlates; the assessment and rehabilitation of neuropsychological deficits, particularly unilateral spatial neglect. G. Vallar is the author of over 200 scientific publications, the editor of the books The

cognitive and neural bases of spatial neglect (2002, with Hans-Otto Karnath and A. David Milner), of Neuropsychological disorders associated with subcortical lesions (1992, with Stefano F. Cappa and Claus W. Wallesch), of Neuropsychological impairments of short-term memory (1990, with Tim Shallice), and of two special issues of the Journal Cortex: Neuroplasticity: behavioral and neural aspects (2014, with Costanza Papagno), and Spatial Neglect. A representational disorder? A Festschrift for Edoardo Bisiach (2004, with John C. Marshall).
