'This volume is essential reading for the practicing neuropsychologists regardless of experience and is nothing less than indispensable for the student neuropsychologist, from novice to advanced learner. The chapters provide a full featured portrait of the real practice of neuropsychology as told by those living their professional lives in a variety of roles and settings. To read this book's edited chapters is to gain a wealth of priceless experience from leading colleagues in neuropsychology who have taken decisions about how and where they practice. The book reveals the good, the bad, and the unexpected consequences. Those entering the practice of clinical neuropsychology will be flying needlessly blind without this book.
