'It is ... a welcome development in the field that a multivolume series dedicated to neuropsychological and neurological perspectives on toxicology has recently been published, and it can only be hoped that this will lead to an increase in the awareness of the neuropsychological consequences of of toxic exposure among clinicians and encourage further research in this field. ... Although the forthcoming volume will be of undoubted interest, the first two volumes are certainly very worthy of consideration. ... The authors are both very experienced, thoughtful clinicians, as indicated from the clinical anecdotes that frequently illustrate the text, turning what could have been, in less expert hands, rather dry tomes into an engaging read, full of clinical insights and well-reasoned arguments. Both volumes are also very comprehensively referenced, enabling a relative newcomer to the field of neurobehavioral toxicology to embark on wider reading if desired, although the comprehensive ... manner in which the material is presented will no doubt provide a sufficient introduction to the field for most newcomers. ... The volume also includes a detailed overview of research paradigms and methodologies that are ... beautifully written and highly engaging, containing a series of interesting discussions on the nature of the research process and of the clinical knowledge that is based on it. ... This series promises to be a most useful addition to the library of any neuropsychological department and to the personal collection of any clinician or researcher with a particular interest in the field. ... The quality of the material included within the volumes is of a uniformly high standard.'- Stephen Mullin, in PsyCritiques, 2nd June 2006
