Sexuality is an integral part of every person, but it is often difficult for people with a physical and/or learning disability to express their sexuality as they wish. Many health professionals, and others such as social workers, are uncertain or uneasy about these issues, and find it difficult to address the sexual needs of their clients with disabilities. This book provides a clear explanation of the issues concerning sexuality and disability for all professionals working in these sensitive areas. Using case studies, Sexuality and Disability enables doctors and nurses in general practice and family planning, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, health visitors and other health professionals and social workers, to acknowledge and address the sexual needs of people with disability, and improve access to sexual health for their patients or clients. 'I heartily welcome this book and commend it to you. Elaine Cooper and John Guillebaud have compiled a unique and valuable resource that not only covers every disability but presents everything in such a matter of fact and reasonable way.'From the foreword by Morgan Williams, former director of the Committee on Sexual Problems of the Disabled

They're hallmarks of childhood. The endless "why" questions. The desire to touch and taste everything. The curiosity and the observations.

It can't be denied-children have an inherent desire to know. Teachers and parents can either encourage this natural inquisitiveness or squelch it. There is joy in the classroom when children learn-not to take a test, not to get a grade, not to compete with each other, and not to please their parents or their teachers-but because they want to know about the world around them

Both Christian educators and parents will find proven help in creating a positive learning atmosphere through methods pioneered by Charlotte Mason that show how to develop a child's natural love of learning. The professional educators, administrators, and Mason supporters contributing to this volume give useful applications that work in a variety of educational settings, from Christian schools to homeschools.

A practical follow-up to Crossway's For the Children's Sake, this book follows a tradition of giving serious thought to what education is, so that children will be learning for life and for everlasting life.
