Since 1971, some 450,000 international children have been adopted by US citizens; a significant number are at risk for a variety of health, social, and learning challenges, but many professionals have limited experience with this group of children. Through this text, Hwa-Forelich (International Adoption Clinic, Department of Communication Sciences and Disorders, St. Louis U., Missouri) provides professionals with an evidence-based resource for increasing their knowledge about the development of internationally adopted children, making appropriate recommendations and referrals, and choosing effective interventions. Coverage includes an overview of the theoretical foundations, followed by chapters on various aspects of development--each illustrated with a case study--including physical growth, health, and motor; social-emotional and relationship; cognitive; inhibition, self-regulation, attention, and memory; hearing, speech, and feeding; prelinguistic, receptive, and expressive language; and social communication.
