Book on Brain Injury

Brain injury is one of the leading causes of disability and death among young people and adults worldwide. Due to advances related to the care provided to these patients in emergency and intensive care services, the number of people who survive brain injury has increased in recent years. For this reason, psychology and neuropsychology professionals must strengthen their knowledge of the clinical, cognitive, emotional, and behavioral characteristics that each type of brain injury can cause, and how these can affect the ability to resume family, social, and work life.

Brain injury arises with the purpose of becoming an essential book for professionals who work in the field. The first three chapters cover concepts that are the basis of any pathology caused by brain injury: neuroanatomy, neurophysiology and neuroimaging.

Finally, from the fourth chapter onward, the book focuses on presenting the main types of brain injury, that is, epilepsy, traumatic brain injury, stroke or cerebrovascular accident, tumors, multiple sclerosis, dementias, infectious diseases of the central nervous system and autoimmune encephalitis.
