He distinguishes two type of theories of normal function--primarily modular and primarily non-modular--and argues that the problems of making valid inferences about normal function from studies of brain-damaged subjects are more severe in the latter. He first analyzes five areas in which modularity can be assumed. He then examines these inferences  from group studies  from individual case studies  and from group studies  and from non-modular systems  more theoretically. Finally he considers five areas where theories of normal function are relatively undeveloped and neuropsychologists provide counter-intuitive phenomena and guides to theory-building.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45646656110645,"sku":"ByrdShop_0521313600","price":84.27,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780521313605.jpg?v=1781676845","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/from-neuropsychology-to-mental-structure-9780521313605","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
