Now in a revised and expanded second edition, this authoritative work synthesizes the rapidly growing knowledge base on the human frontal lobes and their central role in behavior, cognition, health, and disease. Leading contributors address neuroanatomy, neurochemistry, and normal neuropsychological functioning, and describe the nature and consequences of frontal lobe dysfunction in specific neurological and psychiatric conditions. Second edition features include a new section on structural and functional neuroimaging and substantially expanded coverage of frontotemporal dementia and related disorders. Other new topics include self-consciousness, competence, and personality; new testing approaches; bipolar disorder; and adult-onset genetic disorders of the frontal lobes. The book is illustrated with nearly 100 figures.

For nearly two decades, Dr. Miller has been the scientific director of the John Douglas French Foundation for Alzheimer’s Disease. He has been listed in The Best Doctors in America since 1996. Dr. Miller directs a National Institutes of Health-funded program on frontotemporal dementia (FTD) called “FTD: Genes, Images, and Emotions.” He has published more than 250 articles. Jeffrey L. Cummings, MD, is Director of the Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center and the Deane F. Johnson Center for Neurotherapeutics at the University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA). He is the Augustus S. Rose Professor of Neurology and Professor of Psychiatry and Biobehavioral Sciences in the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA. Dr. Cummings is past president of the American Neuropsychiatric Society and the Behavioral Neurology Society. He is the recipient of several prestigious awards, including the Henderson Lectureship of the American Neurological Society. Dr. Cummings has lectured, pursued research, and published on the topics of neuropsychiatry, behavioral neurology, neurotherapeutics, and drug development. He has contributed to the understanding of the role of the frontal-subcortical circuits in the behavior of normal individuals and of persons with brain disorders, and is the author of the Neuropsychiatric Inventory, a tool used to assess behavioral changes in patients with neurological diseases.
