The brain is the center that defines our movements, thoughts, imagination, and dreams, but it is also responsible for the emergence of psychological and neurodevelopmental disorders. At the same time, however, it holds countless answers regarding the symptomatology, diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation of individuals with psychological and neurodevelopmental disorders. The book you hold in your hands provides a view of learning disorders in children and adolescents through the "eyes" of the brain. Based on research and clinical neuropsychology, this book correlates brain function with each of the known learning disabilities.
For this purpose, specialists from Greece and Cyprus described the findings of international as well as their own local research regarding the assessment and diagnosis of specific learning disorders using conventional tests or neuroimaging methods. Additionally, research on the standardization of tests for diagnosing learning disorders in the Greek context is presented. Finally, a thorough discussion on intervention programs that are implemented to address learning disorders at home, school, and in the general environment of children and adolescents is included.
