Language, cognition, and memory are traditionally studied together
prior to a researcher specializing in any one area. They are
studied together initially because much of the development of one
can affect the development of the others. Most books available

development including physical and social development, orspecialize
in cognitive development, language acquisition, or memory. Rarely
do you find all threetogether, despite the fact that they all
relate to each other. This volume consists of focused articles from

available: high level technical books geared toward pediatric
specialists, and self-help books for parents. The technical books
cover diagnosis and treatment, while the self-help books cover

research of any given disorder. This volume consists of focused
articles from the authoritative "Encyclopedia of Infant and Early
Childhood Development" that cover the research information on
common disorders in age 0-3. Topics include those most typically
occurring, making them of great interest to both specialists and
nonspecialists. Disorders and dysfunction of a variety of types are
discussed, whether cognitive, social, emotional, or physiological.

genetic disorders, SIDS and learning disabilities, and provides an

Infancy is a unique period, in that at no other state is there
greater growth and development. During this time, growth is
occurring at a physical level, but equally impressive are the
socio-emotional and cognitive developments during this time.
Genetics, the womb environment, and the physical environment after
birth all combine to impact the rate and manner of growth. Who we
ultimately become as individuals begins here. |
