Interdisciplinary Perspectives & Clinical Applications

Compiled and Edited by Selwyn Super, D.Optom., Ph.D.This volume is historical in that it covers some classical presentations emanating from the 1970s and projecting into the 21st century. The editor has deliberately chosen authorities from different disciplines to show, on the one hand, what has appeared not to change much in clinical thinking over time, and on the other hand, what has resulted in significant paradigm changes as a result of our new understanding of neuroplasticity, and more particularly, in the resolution of the pendular swings between believers of nature versus nurture. The authors are drawn from medicine, psychology and optometry. They provide both historical and up to date insights into human behavior that are influenced by intelligent and appropriate interventions.
