Download or read book Language Development In Exceptional Circumstances written by Dorothy Bishop and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2013-04-15 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ever since attempts were made to describe and explain normal language development, references to exceptional circumstances have been made. Variations in the conditions under which language is acquired can be regarded as natural experiments, which would not be feasible or ethical under normal circumstances. This can throw light on such questions as: *What language input is necessary for the child to learn language? *What is the relationship between cognition and language? *How independent are different components of language function? *Are there critical periods for language development? *Can we specify necessary and sufficient conditions for language impairment? This book covers a range of exceptional circumstances including: extreme deprivation, twinship, visual and auditory impairments, autism and focal brain damage? Written in a jargon-free style, and including a glossary of linguistic and medical terminology, the book assumes little specialist knowledge. This text is suitable for both students and practitioners in the fields of psycholinguistics, developmental and educational psychology, speech pathology, paediatrics and special education.

Download or read book Craniofacial Abnormalities and Clefts of the Lip Alveolus and Palate written by Gerhard Pfeifer and published by Thieme Medical Publishers. This book was released on 1991 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anyone engaged in surgery of malformations of the head in infants cannot tell right away whether long-term results will be adequate. He will know the outcome only after the growth process has ceases, that is to say, 15 to 20 years hence. For more than a century surgeons have been attempting to find out what to expect. But there are still only few centers on the globe who can tell us something about long-term results. For this reason the interdisciplinary "Hamburg Center of Craniofacial Anomalies & Cleft Lip, Jaw & Palate", commanding over 30 years of documentation experience, continued to uphold the tradition of three previous symposia (1954, 1964, 1979) by convening the 4th International Symposium & inviting teams from malformation centers who can present long-term results. For the first time is has been possible to compare various methods in systematic sequence on the basis of late results after cessation of growth: This gives the book pioneer character for 20 years to come. The discussions will have a lasting effect on therapy principles in plastic surgery, neurosurgery, oral & maxillofacial surgery, pediatric surgery, ENT surgery, orthodontics & logopedics.

Download or read book Syndromes of the Head and Neck written by Robert J. Gorlin and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2001-09-27 with total page 1332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This classic text, one of the true anchors of our clinical genetics publishing program, covers over 700 different genetic syndromes involving the head and neck, and it has established itself as the definitive, comprehensive work on the subject. The discussion covers the phenotype spectrum, epidemiology, mode of inheritance, pathogenesis, and clinical profile of each condition, all of which is accompanied by a wealth of illustrations. The authors are recognized leaders in the field, and their vast knowledge and strong clinical judgment will help readers make sense of this complex and burgeoning field. Dr. Gorlin retires as editor in this edition and co-editor Raoul Hennekam takes over. Dr. Hennekam is regarded as one of the top dysmorphologists--and indeed one of the top clinical geneticists--in the world. Judith Allanson is new to the book but is a veteran OUP author and a widely respected geneticist, and Ian Krantz at Penn is a rising star in the field. Dr. Gorlin's name has always been closely associated with the book, and it has now become part of the title. As in all fields of genetics, there has been an explosion in the genetics of dysmorphology syndromes, and the author has undertaken a complete updating of all chapters in light of the discoveries of the Human Genome Project and other ongoing advances, with some chapters requiring complete rewriting. Additional material has been added both in terms of new syndromes and in updating information on existing syndromes. The book will appeal to clinical geneticists, pediatricians, neurologists, head and neck surgeons, otolarynologists, and dentists. The 4th edition, which published in 2001, has sold 2,600 copies.
