Book Description

November 19, 1996 0205194311 978-0205194315 1
The most significant features of this book focus on its organization and content. Differing from all other introductory learning disabilities books, this book provides a true introduction to the field of learning disabilities, but does not include material related to methods of teaching students with learning disabilities. Rather, it provides a wealth of information that will provide readers with the knowledge necessary to understand this very nebulous category of disabilities. A lifespan approach is used, which follows individuals with learning disabilities from preschool and elementary ages through adulthood. In this book, learning disabilities is viewed as a broader category of disabilities than in many other books. A chapter on concomitant disabilities describes the many different problems that an individual can have in addition to exhibiting learning disabilities. For professionals working in the field of special education.
