Preoperative Events switches the focus from post-operative rehabilitation to preoperative experiences and personal histories to lessen the consequences of brain damage. These papers document the relationship between preoperative experience and postoperative performance and discuss a variety of protective preoperative experiences that can ameliorate the deleterious effects of brain damage.
"Schulkin's book is the first to concentrate exclusively on the importance of preoperative events and, in particular, the possibility that preoperative events might "protect" the organism against the effects of brain damage. As such it is a welcome addition to the literature....This is an interesting and informative book....the book achieves its objective of stimulating further thought..."
—Neuropsychologia
"Although an edited text, it is well integrated and concludes with three excellent, albeit brief, summary and synthesis chapters....this text is highly recommended."
