The workbook is grounded in established theory and rehabilitation principles and is comprehensive in addressing the diversity of cognitive and psychological issues that commonly occur with brain injury. The content is well integrated and accessible to readers with varying levels of rehabilitation experience. Notable strengths of the book are the inclusion of chapters on mood and fatigue and the wealth of specific treatment activities--including handouts--that practitioners can easily implement and tailor to individual clients. --McKay Moore Sohlberg, PhD, CCC-SLP, Communication Disorders and Sciences Program, University of Oregon A highly readable book that will engage the interests of a wide range of rehabilitation professionals.

It will be a go-to resource for rehabilitation clinicians. --Jennifer J.
