DESCRIPTION:
Concussive Brain Trauma: Neurobehavioral Impairment and Maladaptation stands alone as an in-depth, authoritative guide to the condition also described as closed head injury and "minor" traumatic brain injury.. A wide-range study of victims of head injury often reveals disorders that are neglected by less extensive examinations, and dispels the idea that there is usually a benign outcome. In addition, the book documents unfamiliar signs not included in the usual list of postconcussive symptoms. The book is unique in its coverage of the personality changes, family dysfunction, and stress that often occur in wake of concussive brain trauma. Focusing on a public health problem affecting millions of people of all ages, with approximately 1,300 references, Concussive Brain Trauma: Neurobehavioral Impairment and Maladaptation addresses such topics as the recognition of minor traumatic brain injury in the emergency room and clinical practice. Case examples illustrate persistent and acute alterations of consciousness, as well as cognitive, mood, personality, and social effects of head injury, in order to guide appropriate treatment

"Must-Have reference" according to Kate - New Zealand. Finding this book was life changing. There seems to be enormous volumes of work on severe brain injuries but very little written and published on mild traumatic brain injury. 'Mild' does not begin to describe the journey and recovery, let alone the enormous amount of symptoms and problems that can face people with mTBI.
