Description
Summary:"This book is the product of almost 40 years of first-hand experience as director, supervisor, and instructor in the fields of education and treatment of all kinds of handicapped children, clinical and abnormal psychology, and mental hygiene, and of extensive research in the technical writings, including recent publications. The book attempts to supply the need for an up-to-date reference book for the intelligent lay reader and, particularly, for the professional workers in the fields of special education, handicapped children, mental defect, clinical and abnormal psychology, child guidance, mental hygiene, social service, psychiatry, and pediatrics. It can also serve in the areas covered by advanced students in psychology, education, and medicine, and, more particularly, in special education, clinical psychology, mental and physical defect, orthopedics, and neuropsychiatry"--Preface.
