The Routledge International Handbook of Neurocognitive Rehabilitation

The Routledge International Handbook of Neurocognitive Rehabilitation is a comprehensive resource highlighting the rapid advancements in neurocognitive science and their application in rehabilitation practices. Bringing together perspectives from top authorities in neuropsychology, neurology, neurosurgery, and neuropsychiatry, it explores cutting-edge techniques and resources including virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), machine learning (ML), and artificial intelligence (AI) that are revolutionizing the area. By combining scientific rigor with accessibility, the book closes the gap between state-of-the-art technology and conventional rehabilitation techniques, giving readers academic and practical expertise. Sections focus on the foundations of neurocognitive rehabilitation, technology-driven innovations, clinical applications, and ethical, social, and practical considerations. Case studies and qualitative accounts are integrated into the chapters to illustrate the impact of neurocognitive rehabilitation techniques on patient outcomes, opening up new avenues for individualized and successful therapeutic approaches. It is an essential reference for students, researchers, and professionals to leverage emerging technologies for improving patient outcomes and advancing the discipline of neurocognitive rehabilitation.
