In this text for graduate students in teacher- and clinical-preparation programs, Ensher (education, Syracuse University) looks at the medical, cultural, psycho-social, developmental, and educational issues that confront families of infants and young children with special needs. These concerns are addressed within the contexts of hospital, home, and educational settings, and the community at large. The first section of the book details the origins of medical and developmental issues in pregnancy, labor and delivery, evaluation and care of the neonate, and family environments. Later chapters cover neonatal neurology, assessment of young children, and best practices and programs for specific conditions. There is also material on family issues, such as cultural diversity and disability, the cycle of substance abuse, and teen parents. Each chapter opens with specific goals and objectives, and closes with a summary, with b&w photos included. An appendix lists related web sites. The book can be used as a text and reference for students and professionals in nursing, medicine, special education, social work, and psychology.
