Rezensionen

"Base Rates are an extremely important part of clinical practice. This book provides that information and does so in a concise and easy reference manner. It is complete with thousands of symptoms, as well as representative populations. For neuropsychologists, this is definitely worth owning, especially in conjunction with the earlier publication [Practitioner's Guide to Symptom Base Rates in Clinical Neuropsychology]. 4 Stars!"

Christopher J. Graver, PhD, University of Michigan Health System. Published in Doody's Book Review.

"... a valuable guide to locating literature that offers answers to questions we may want to answer in clinical and forensic evaluations ... a valuable resource for clinical, forensic, and research use ...."
