Extensive Reference

This handbook is an extensive reference source for clinical neuropsychology. It emerged from a 1988 Italian text and has mostly Italian contributors. The book is well organized and well written. The chapters include both theoretical thinking about and anatomic correlates of neuropsychological disorders in addition to their clinical features. This reviewer particularly liked the numerous theoretical discussions. Animal or cognitive experiments generally are not discussed. The topics cover current thinking in most areas and it is exceptionally well referenced with over 5000 citations.

✓ This paper reviews the literature on complex temporary disturbances of brain function triggered by mild blows to the head in children, adolescents, and young adults. It consolidates the evidence by which these attacks have been identified as classical or complicated migraines, and provides a historical account of the descriptions and proffered explanations of these attacks. The clinical features and the electroencephalography, angiography, computerized tomography, and cerebrospinal fluid findings of trauma-induced migraine are presented and compared to those of spontaneous migraine. Ideas about the pathogenesis of this condition are related to current thinking on the neurological phenomena of migraine in general.

The second edition of Qin and Zheng’s Metadata is a welcome and thorough update of an already valuable text. The authors have expanded on the first edition in a way that reflects a detailed understanding of an often complex subject. Metadata are a constantly shifting landscape with new schema and tools emerging and fading at an amazing pace. Qin and Zheng deal with the subject deftly, providing content that is clearly situated in its own context that will serve as ample reference material even in such a fast-paced landscape. In addition, the book is complemented by valuable online content that includes a metadata tutorial, chapter outlines, and exercises. The website includes a section with similar content to the first edition of the book, allowing users to compare the structure of both editions and to benefit from additional practice exercises. Additionally, the links available in the online appendixes are invaluable for readers, providing an extensive reference source for further research and work in metadata.
