"It is uncontestable that this book is without peer. The economic content breaks new ground and in doing so appropriately raises expectations that our clinical services can be shown to produce demonstrable positive cost outcomes. This publication could not be more timely." -- Jerry Sweet, PhD. ABPP, Evanston Northwestern Healthcare and Northwestern University Medical School"George Prigatano has a knack for focusing on critical professional issues before others recognize their importance. In Clinical Neuropsychology and Cost OutcomeResearch, Dr. Prigatano has again demonstrated his ability to provide insight into topics changing psychology. By examining the value of neuropsychology, Prigatano and colleagues squarely address the most important challenging issue for the profession. The text provides psychologists with the information needed to join the dialogue on reimbursement as knowledgeable participants and will launch a plethora of other reviews on the value of psychology services. Prigatano's informative volume will set the standard by which others are measured." -- Robert G. Frank, PhD, University of Florida
