My upcoming edited book “Enduring and Emerging Trends in Minority and Cross-Cultural Aspects of Neuropsychological Assessment” looks like it is a go with the publisher (Swets & Zeitlinger) and I am now looking for potential ad-hoc reviewers for the chapters listed below. If interested, let me know. Initial chapter deadline is not until 12/1/12, so this should be enough notice. Chapters revisions will be due 6/1/13. Ideally I would like 2 ad-hocs for each chapter.
