Cognitive development in children is a highly complex process
which, while remarkably resilient, can be disrupted in a variety of
ways. This volume focuses on two types of neurodevelopmental
disorder: syndromic conditions such as fragile X syndrome, Down
syndrome, Williams syndrome and velocardiofacial syndrome; and
non-syndromic conditions including dyslexia, specific language
impairment, autism spectrum disorder and attention deficit
hyperactivity disorder. This book provides a state-of-the-art
review of current research and covers key topics across the full
range of developmental disorders. Topics covered include: diagnosis
and comorbidity genetics longitudinal studies computational models
distinguishing disorder from disadvantage language and culture the
modern beginnings of research into developmental disorders The book
also looks at how the study of developmental disorders has
contributed to our understanding of typical development, and themes
emerge that are common across chapters, including intervention and
education, and the neurobiological bases of developmental
disorders. The result is a fascinating and thought-provoking volume
that will be indispensable to advanced students, researchers and
practitioners in the fields of developmental psychology,
neuropsychology, speech and language therapy, and developmental
disorders.
