The first comprehensive text on child neuropsychology, this volume draws together material from many fields, including neurobiology, clinical neurology, developmental psychology, psychiatry, and pediatrics. It traces the connections between neurological damage sustained before birth and during infancy, and developmental and functional disorders appearing in later stages of life. The authors stress the early developmental consequences of such factors as nutrition, infection, intoxication, anoxia, prematurity, and trauma, as they relate to the long-term psychological development of the child. Follow-up studies are emphasized, to provide information linking early neural disorders with post-adolescent development problems. Human Developmental Neuropsychology covers in depth, but in very accessible language, the most pressing issues of child neuropsychology.
