Neuropsychology of Toxic Exposure

Environmental and occupational toxic exposures rarely leave a single, unmistakable mark on the brain.Instead, they quietly, cumulatively, and often invisibly alter cognition, emotion, and behavior.Neuropsychology of Toxic Exposure brings clarity to this complex terrain, offering a comprehensive framework for understanding how toxic agents disrupt brain-behavior relationships across the lifespan and how those effects can be assessed, treated, and prevented. Bridging neurotoxicology, neuroscience, and clinical neuropsychology, this volume translates biological injury into functional meaning.It examines how metals, pesticides, solvents, gases, biological toxins, and extreme exposures affect attention, memory, executive functioning, and emotional regulation.The emphasis is on subtle neurocognitive change, longitudinal assessment, and the integration of neuropsychological data with neuroimaging, biomarkers, and exposure history.
