More DescriptionThis book explains clearly how to examine and assess a young child who has a possible neurological problem. The emphasis is on the logical approach to identifying the child's problem, and encompasses a thorough assessment of the child's needs. The book includes a comprehensive section on developmental assessment from birth through the preschool years; it also reviews all the specialized investigation techniques with which the clinician needs to be familiar. The authors are both experts in their field and write from a wealth of clinical experience. Their concern for the child within his family and wider environment is underlined throughout the text. The skills involved in the neurological evaluation of the child are carefully and thoroughly explained.
