This comprehensive medical volume provides an extensive overview of assessment, treatment, and care of persons with developmental disabilities across the lifespan. Updating their 1989 first edition (ISBN 0-8121-1082-X), the editors have invited an impressive group of experts from multidisciplinary backgrounds to discuss a broad range of topics related to supporting children and adults with developmental disabilities and their families and caregivers. The second edition includes new chapters on health issues in school, inborn errors of metabolism; intellectual disability syndromes; autism; ADHD; therapies and assistive technology; and end of life care.
