Description
Current Issues in Developmental Disorders by Chloë R. Marshall provides a comprehensive review of current research on neurodevelopmental disorders. The book explores two types of conditions: syndromic and non-syndromic disorders, including fragile X syndrome, Down syndrome, and autism spectrum disorder. Topics covered include diagnosis, genetics, longitudinal studies, computational models, and the neurobiological bases of developmental disorders. The study of developmental disorders has also contributed to our understanding of typical development, highlighting common themes such as intervention and education. This book will be invaluable to advanced students, researchers, and practitioners in fields related to developmental psychology, neuropsychology, speech and language therapy, and developmental disorders.
