Journal ArticleDOI
Principles of Neural Science
TL;DR: The editors have done a masterful job of weaving together the biologic, the behavioral, and the clinical sciences into a single tapestry in which everyone from the molecular biologist to the practicing psychiatrist can find and appreciate his or her own research.
Journal ArticleDOI
Executive functions and the frontal lobes: a conceptual view
TL;DR: Data is presented from several studies to support statements that there is no unitary executive function, and the most important role of the frontal lobes may be for affective responsiveness, social and personality development, and self-awareness and unconsciousness.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mild traumatic brain injury: pathophysiology, natural history, and clinical management.
