The care of stroke patients has changed dramatically. As well as improvements in the emergency care of the condition, there have been marked advances in our understanding, management and rehabilitation of residual deficits. This book is about the care of stroke patients, focusing on behavioural and cognitive problems. It provides a comprehensive review of the field covering the diagnostic value of these conditions, in the acute and later phases, their requirements in terms of treatment and management and the likelihood and significance of long-term disability. This book will appeal to all clinicians involved in the care of stroke patients, as well as to neuropsychologists, other rehabilitation therapists and research scientists investigating the underlying neuroscience.

The treatise on Aphasia is a comprehensive exploration of the intricate dimensions surrounding language impairment, offering a deep dive into the medical, neuroscientific, and holistic facets of this condition. Spanning ten chapters, each meticulously crafted, the treatise begins with a foundational understanding, delving into the historical evolution of the term "Aphasia" and providing a nuanced classification of its various manifestations. The exploration extends to the prevalence and incidence of Aphasia, providing a statistical lens to the epidemiological landscape. Moving deeper, the treatise meticulously dissects the intricate anatomy of the brain, elucidating the structure and function of key language centers such as Broca's Area and Wernicke's Area. The journey extends to the microscopic realm, unraveling the role of neuronal networks, glial cells, neurotransmitters, and neuroplasticity in the complex web of language processing. Clinical insights take center stage in subsequent chapters, where the distinctive features of different aphasia types are dissected with surgical precision. Broca's Aphasia, Wernicke's Aphasia, Global Aphasia, and other variants emerge as distinct entities, each explored with a rich tapestry of clinical characteristics.
