Reviews

“This is a well-written review of select aspects of the use of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) for rehabilitation of people who are impaired by stroke. … This book is ideal for professionals who are getting started in research on the use of rTMS for stroke rehabilitation. … Figures and tables are highlights of the book. Reference lists are strong.” (Elliot J. Roth, Doody's Book Reviews, November, 2016)
