Description

This volume features reviews of 96 medical conditions that result in educational, psychological and behavioural challenges for those involved in the care of children with health-related disorders. Each chapter reviews the aetiology of the disorder, which is followed by a section on the expected behavioural and physical outcomes. Authors then describe psychoeducational implications and cover interventions that school psychologists, school-based professionals and medical professionals can use to help ease the suffering of these children.
