Special Topic: Spirituality and Neurorehabilitation

Guest Editor: Simon Dein

The thematic section in this issue focuses upon spiritual and religious aspects of the neurorehabilitation process. Beyond their direct impact on the brain, neurological insults affect the sense of self, personhood and identity. Written by specialists in their field, the papers make important contributions to the emerging and clinically significant literature on spirituality and neurorodisability and provide pertinent suggestions for incorporating spirituality into neurorehabilitation.
