| Summary: | "Since the first edition of this book was published in 1984, the intensive debates about the 'correct' method of treatment for children with cerebral palsy have been resolved; it is now possible to describe what is generally agreed to be the optimal approach. This entirely rewritten new edition compiles the most up-to-date information, reflecting a worldwide overview. Coverage includes the coordination of care and the management team; the types of cerebral palsy; assessment; goal-setting; learning and neural plasticity; global therapeutic approaches and more focused (topical) therapies; the mechanisms of deformity, its prevention and treatment; and the transition to adult life."--Publisher description. |
