Clinical Neuropsychology of Emotion synthesizes research on the neuropsychology of emotion and outlines its practical clinical implications.
The textbook follows an emotional event from the initiating trigger through physiological and psychological responses, examining how patterns of emotion motivate complex behavioral choices. Coverage also addresses relevant clinical syndromes and reviews how deficits in emotional processing affect cognition, daily functioning, and mental health.
Designed as both a teaching text and a reference, the volume supports undergraduate and graduate courses, researchers investigating brain-emotion relationships, and clinicians evaluating patients with affective processing deficits.
