Joel E. Morgan, PhD, ABPP. Dr. Morgan is the senior editor of the two previous editions of the Textbook of Clinical Neuropsychology, as well as editor of many other books in the science and practice of clinical neuropsychology. He also has over 80 peer-reviewed publicationsincluding journal articles and book chapters. Dr. Morgan served as Oral Examiner for ABCN for 18 years. He has presented at professional conferences many times during his 35-year career and supervised over 100 trainees at all levels of neuropsychological training. He is double board certified in Clinical Neuropsychology and Pediatric Neuropsychology. Dr. Morgan maintains an independent practice of lifespan neuropsychology and forensic neuropsychology in New Jersey.

Joseph H. Ricker, PhD, ABPP, is the Director of Psychology for NYU Rusk Rehabilitation and is a Professor in the departments of Rehabilitation Medicine, Psychiatry and Radiology at New York University Grossman School of Medicine. He is board certified by the American Board of Professional Psychology in both Clinical Neuropsychology and Rehabilitation Psychology. He has authored over 100 peer-reviewed manuscripts and book chapters and has edited or co-edited five books. Dr. Ricker has served as a member of the editorial boards of five peer-reviewed journals (Journal of Clinical & Experimental Neuropsychology; Journal of Head Trauma rehabilitation; The Clinical Neuropsychologist; Rehabilitation Psychology; and Archives of Clinical Neuropsychology). He has a long record of NIH-funded research examining cognitive impairment, recovery, and rehabilitation following traumatic brain injury. Recent research interests include the examination of altered cerebral blood flow and functional connectivity as they relate to cognitive impairment after brain injury, using modalities such as functional MRI, positron emission tomography, and diffusion tensor imaging.

Ida Sue Baron, PhD, ABPP, is Clinical Professor Emerita in Pediatrics, The George Washington University School of Medicine and Health Sciences in Washington, DC. She is board certified in Clinical Neuropsychology and as a Subspecialist in Pediatric Clinical Neuropsychology by the American Board of Professional Psychology (ABPP). She is past- President of the American Board of Clinical Neuropsychology (ABCN) and the International Neuropsychological Society (INS). Over 54+ years as a lifespan neuropsychologist, she established Neuropsychology services at the Children’s National Medical Center in 1971 and at Georgetown University School of Medicine in 1985 before Independent Private Practice. A pioneering advocate for provision of neuropsychological services to infants, toddlers, and preschoolers long before these became mainstream, she co- Chaired the ABCN Committee on Subspecialization in Neuropsychology and Chaired the ABCN Pediatric Subspecialty Committee. Honors include the American Academy of Clinical Neuropsychology Distinguished Neuropsychologist Award, the ABPP Award for Service to the Specialty of Clinical Neuropsychology, the INS Distinguished Career Award, and election as Fellow of the American Psychological Association. She authored or edited eight textbooks, including Neuropsychological Evaluation of the Child: Domains, Methods, Case Studies, second edition (Oxford University Press), and was Associate Editor for the journals Neuropsychology Review and The Clinical Neuropsychologist. Her research interests include pediatric assessment methods and the outcomes of preterm birth.

The Third Edition of the now classic Textbook of Clinical Neuropsychology presents entirely new and updated chapters that address major topics in lifespan research and practice, forensic neuropsychology and emerging issues in supervision, digital media, and other contemporary facets of neuropsychology. The editors have assembled an impressive array of authoritative contributors to address these topics so as to inform readers whether they are early trainees or seasoned practitioners and educators. This edition of the Textbook will be a valuable addition to every neuropsychologist’s bookshelf.
