This volume is an excellent overview of the work of Heinz Werner, who ranks with Piaget as one of the leading developmental psychologists and theorists of the last half century. It also is an excellent resource for clinicians who are seeking a developmental perspective on neuropsychological syndrome analysis. Werner was the mentor and theoretician who guided the work of the famous neuropsychologist Edith Kaplan, whose work now is fundamental to a wide variety of cognitive measures of intelligence, memory, language, and executive function.
