I received the September 2009 issue of the Journal of the International Neuropsychological Society yesterday. If you (or your library) have access to it) it is chock-full of excellent articles, including an overview to the anterior temporal lobes and semantic memory, a paper about the Brixton Spatial Anticipation Test, several papers relevant to problems and deficits in executive functioning in different pathologies, and a look at the phenomenon of "closing-in" behavior in patients with Alzheimer's disease

Are you interested in reading disorders or, generally, in learning disorders. If so, the new issue of JINS (Journal of the International Neuropsychological Society) has an excellent article by Dr. Jack Fletcher on this topic. Unless you subscribe or have a Cambridge University Press account, you would likely need to track it down at your nearest academic library, but it is a worthwhile read on the topic
