This text provides an interesting and informative account of the
child's journey from the womb to the world outside, through
childhood and into adolescence. It is based on the belief that it
is vital for those training to work with children who have problems
to understand what is typical or atypical in children's
development.The first half of the book, discussing normal patterns
of growth and development, is cross-referenced to equivalent
chapters in the second half, which discuss the atypical route.
These connections serve to emphasize the continuities between, and
similarities of, children with typical and atypical conditions.
Among the difficulties covered are: Pervasive developmental
disorders Genetic disorders Physical impairments Learning
difficulties Brain damage Emotional and behavioural disorders
Personality disorders. Physical and mental illnessesThe text also
deliberately links developmental and clinical psychology approaches
in order to help readers connect their theoretical understanding of
the physical and psychological problems of childhood with the
practicalities of assessment, rehabilitation and treatment.
