Editorial Reviews

Product Description

This text shifts attention away from the anatomical and pathophysiological aspects of cerebral palsy and examines it within the framework of a child's normal development. The major tasks at each developmental transition from baby to young adult are examined in detail together with the interaction between the patient and the professional carer. The emphasis throughout is on a team approach and the book is written by various members of the team. This book should be of interest to paediatricians, rehabilitation specialists and neurologists. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

5.0 out of 5 stars Expensive, but worth it, May 26, 1999
By A Customer
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This book, written in England, provides an outstanding description of the development of children and teenagers with cerebral palsy. The authors described the emotional, neurological, social, and motor control issues in a very clear and succinct way. I found this book to be more helpful in explaning developmental issues than several American reference books which are much longer than this book. I especially liked the description of the importance of play for young children.

Also good was the clear recognition that society unfairly puts the burden on individuals with disabilities to adjust to non-disabled norms, rather than making the adjustments necessary to fully integrate disabled people. For example, how many times do restaurant and hotel owners complain that it is "too expensive" to make their buildings accessible?

Well worth the money.
