Praise for the First Edition:“...A ‘go-to’ reference for any clinician treating indi-

viduals with brain injury... The editors have as-sembled a single resource for physiatrists,neurologists, psychiatrists, therapists, nurses,psychologists, and other medical specialists, aswell as for legal professionals and patient advo-cates. A medical condition of this magnitude andscope requires the thoughtful and wide-rangingcoverage this text provides. It will quickly becomethe authoritative desk reference sought by clini-cians practicing brain injury medicine.”

—The New England Journal of Medicine

“Brain Injury Medicine is clearly a ‘go-to’ textbookthat belongs on the shelves of brain injury profes-sionals across the board- physicians, psychologists,therapists, and treatments specialists. It contains adepth and breadth of information on the science ofbrain injury and the state of the art in treating indi-viduals. The editors and chapter authors of this ex-cellent textbook deserve to be complimented fortheir expertise and commitment to helping profes-sionals expand their knowledge of brain injurytreatment, research, and service delivery.”

—Brain Injury Professional

“A much-needed and welcome addition to the braininjury medical literature... an excellent compre-hensive clearinghouse for state-of-the-art knowl-edge in brain injury medicine today... Anyonecaring for brain-injured patients would do well toobtain this book for use as a go-to reference, ateaching tool, and for assistance with the manymedical and rehabilitation management issueswhich face this patient population and the clini-cians who care for them.” —Doody's Reviews

“This text is a necessary addition to the reference li-braries of clinicians caring for individuals with TBIand should be a required text for fellows complet-ing their training.”
