This volume provides, for the first time, multidisciplinary perspectives on the problem of awareness of deficits following brain injury. Some brain-damaged patients are entirely unaware of the existence of their deficits, even when they are severe and easily noticed by others. In addressing these topics, contributors cover the entire range of neuropsychological syndromes in which problems with awareness of deficit are observed. On the clinical side, leading researchers delineate the implications of awareness of deficits for rehabilitation and patient management, and the role of defence mechanisms such as denial. Theoretical discussions focus on the importance of awareness disturbances for better understanding of such cognitive processes as attention, consciousness and monitoring.
