L. Gillikin, Choice "The quality of the product demonstrates that Blackwell made not only an appropriate decision in commissioning Drs. Beaumont, Kenealy, and Rogers to edit this major contribution to neuropsychology but these author editors should be counted among the best that could possibly carry out such complex, technical project so effectively." Muriel D. Lezak, Journal of the International Neuropsychology Society
"As a book of reference, read with a critical eye that bears in mind the speed with which knowledge is changing in this field, this dictionary is a valuable aid to those who wish to check out their understanding of a particular topic." Margaret Wilkinson, Society of Analytical Psychology, Journal of Analytical Psychology, Vol. 48, No. 2, April 2003
