Original manuscript received July 26, 2020.Revised manuscript accepted July 26, 2020.First published online November 13, 2020.The number of neuropsychologically challenged children throughout the world is of great concern. The book, Evaluation and Treatment of Neuropsychologically Compromised Children (London: Academic Press, 2020), edited by neuropsychologists Darlyne G. Nemeth from America and Janna Glozman from Russia, offers the most current expertise to ameliorate this situation. Chapters present the work of practitioners and researchers from around the world who acknowledge and apply the legacies of noted neuropsychologists Alexander Luria and Ralph Reitan, from Russia and the United States respectively, to effectively evaluate and treat neuropsychologically compromised children. The work by the authors is of greatly value to all health professionals about diagnosis and intervention and treatment approaches to address a wide range of brain-behavior challenges that children face. The contributions build on the foundation set by pioneers Luria and Reitan to present a new level of professional practice and vision that bodes well for the well-being of children and adults worldwide.Серьезное беспокойство вызывает большое количество детей с нейропсихологическими нарушениями во всем мире.

Anorgasmia in women

This article reports on the etiology and treatment of anorgasmia. Etiological factors include childhood and adolescent experiences, current individual attitudes, and lifestyle factors, as well as the quality and dynamics of past and present committed relationships. It is important to assess the nature of each of the previously mentioned factors in determining the nature of the orgasmic dysfunction as well as assisting in the development of a treatment plan. Treatment approaches for anorgasmia need to address individual factors (e.g., performance anxiety, poor body image) as well as interpersonal problems. A systemic treatment framework would appear to be the most useful approach to treat this sexual dysfunction, as this type of strategy identifies and treats the difficulties experienced by the anorgasmic woman within the total context of her life. Of course, this approach necessitates the involvement of the partner in therapy, and treatment is unlikely to be effective unless the problems experienced by both the woman and her partner are addressed. Limitations of past research in terms of inadequate evaluation of treatment, low sample sizes, and poorly defined interventions are discussed. Finally, directions for future research to advance our understanding of the most effective treatments for anorgasmia are considered. <br /
