Description
Neural Plasticity and Cognitive Development addresses fundamental questions about human brain development through the study of children with early occurring focal brain injury. It is argued that the capacity for adaptation is not the result of early insult. Rather, it reflects normal developmental processes which are both dynamic and adaptive operating against a backdrop of serious perturbation of the neural substrate.
