Based on (potential) author feedback to my post yesterday, some themes that are emerging include the following. Contact me if interested in contributing a chapter, writing an overview chapter, or perhaps serving as an ad-hoc reviewer.
Emerging Themes
1. Neuropsych consequences of TBI/CHI in minority and CC populations
2. Health/lifestyle impacts on neurpsych performance in minority and CC populations
3. Impact of multi-racial background(s) on neuropsych performance and assessment
4. Brain injury and rehab in minority and CC groups
5. Alaskan Natives/indigenous cultures
6. Neuropsych predictors of interpersonal violence among minority and CC populations
7. Pediatric neuropsych issues (e.g., LD, ADHD, Autism, etc.)
Thanks

Dear Dr. Ferraro,
Would a chapter on the neuropsychological assessment and treatment of Hispanics in a brain injury rehabilitation setting be of interest? If so, I would be very interested in contributing a chapter to this wonderful book.
Sincere Regards,
Veronica

In 2002, I edited Minority and Cross Cultural Aspects of Neuropsychological Assessment (ISBN 90-265-1830-7) for Swets and Zeitlinger. A recent discussion with the Series Editor about an update to this 2002 book prompted this email. The 2002 book included sections on African/Black Americans, Asian/Pacific Islanders, Hispanic/Latino, Native American, Rural/Elderly/Saudi Arabia along with an Introduction and Epilogue/Future Directions. If you, your colleagues and/or your students would be interested in submitting a chapter on these or other groups, let me know. I am sure I left out some minority groups in 2002 that would now be a welcome addition. A short description of your possible chapter would be helpful as well as the specific group(s) you are interested in writing about. Chapters can empirical, theoretical, or both.
