To help guide diagnosis and intervention for the broad array of genetic and acquired conditions classified as neurodevelopmental disabilities, Farmer (health psychology and child health, U. of Missouri-Columbia; Thompson Center for Autism and Neurodevelopmental Disorders) and her rehabilitation specialist co-editors introduce 17 chapters reviewing key aspects of the life course for these children. Contributors review the categories of such disabilities, their prevalence, and psychosocial outcomes. Next, they treat specific conditions that may result in disability and chronic illness. Noting the frustrating lack of evidence to guide interventions, the final part presents new models of hospital- and community-based care, and empirical support for best practices.
