Description
In this relatively new and rapidly evolving area of child clinical practice where professionals evaluate large numbers of children with learning problems, very little exists in the way of uniform standards or approaches, either within or across disciplines. This timely volume presents a classification system of learning disorders in children, reviews the research supporting such a system, and provides a usable, practical guide for practitioners in different disciplines faced with the clinical problem of diagnosing and treating learning disorders in children.
