Handbook of Neurodevelopmental and Genetic Disorders in Children (2nd ed)

Recognized as the definitive reference in the field, this book addresses a broad range of biologically based disorders that affect children's learning and development.

Leading authorities review the genetics of each disorder; its course and outcome; associated developmental, cognitive, and psychosocial challenges; and what clinicians and educators need to know about effective approaches to assessment and intervention.

Coverage encompasses more frequently diagnosed learning and behavior problems with a genetic component as well as numerous lower-incidence neurodevelopmental disabilities.

Illustrations include 12 color plates.
