Abstract
Behavioral neurology is a subspecialty of neurology concerned with the diagnosis and management of patients who have linguistic, perceptual, cognitive, or behavioral impairments due to brain injury or disease. The field has an extensive heritage in the original common historical roots of neurology and psychiatry. However, the modern growth of behavioral neurology can be traced from the pioneering work of Norman Geschwind in the 1960s [1, 2]. Behavioral neurology has also shared a particularly intimate relationship with neuropsychology, both clinically and in the scientific investigation of the neurological basis of human behavior. The tremendous recent growth of behavioral neurology and the closely related field of neuropsychiatry demonstrates the increasing recognition of the importance of brain function in determining behavior.
