Mind, Mood, and Memory

"Breaking down some of the commonly misunderstood complexities of cognitive dysfunction in MS, Feinstein does a beautiful job explaining how subtle deficits isolated to cognitive functions such as processing speed can be incredibly disabling yet invisible to a casual observer or mistaken for ordinary stress. I wish this could become common knowledge."

"Introducing readers to the seriousness and the challenges associated with multiple sclerosis, this book combines a review of the scientific literature with detailed vignettes to provide a comprehensive perspective on where we are as a field in terms of assessing and treating individuals with MS and comorbid conditions. Feinstein cogently communicates the current evidence and tools for improving diagnosis while explaining how the biopsychosocial model of the etiology of MS can inform treatment. I would recommend this book to healthcare professionals in integrated healthcare or those in training who are seeking out a career working in integrated care or clinical psychology."

"World-renowned neuropsychiatrist Dr. Feinstein has written a comprehensive book covering cognitive dysfunction, depression, anxiety disorders, affect dysregulation, and personality changes. Researchers will appreciate the scholarly, state of the art summaries of what is known about these important spheres of MS phenomenology. Clinicians will appreciate the rich interplay of case studies, clinical insight, and treatment recommendations. Highly recommended."

"Mind, Mood, and Memory is the book the multiple sclerosis community has been waiting for. Professionals will learn a great deal about the disease, and patients and their loved ones will find the tales of MS meaningful and sensitively told. It is a truth-telling work that gives voice to people from all walks of life. It contains just the right blend of science, clinical experiences, case studies, and personal information. The CMSC endorses this book as a seminal work that will act as a resource and reference to patients and professionals alike now and for years to come."

"Any health professional involved in the care of people with multiple sclerosis should read Feinstein's book, regardless of their specialty."
