Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In view of the paucity of research in the area, the epidemiological study reported in the monograph by Professor Anima Sen is a welcome attempt and is commendable.... The analysis of data has been reported in minute detail. The correlational analysis and factor analysis of the data reveal interesting patters of relationships among different variables for normal and retarded children. These results serve as a springboard for generating a wealth of hypotheses for futher research." --Indian Psychological Abstracts and Reviews "This book, packed with invaluable information, facts and figures, is a comprehensive report of a survey of mentally handicapped children in the villages around New Delhi, the capital of India. . . . There is a proverbial 'Indian gold mine' in the reference section of the book which every 'prospector' in the field would feel obligated to treasure; a list of excellent references related to studies in India is hard to come by. . . . We have no hesitation in recommending this book, a classic in its own right, to academic departments of developmental psychiatry and psychology, social sciences and, in particular, to health and social service planners in developing countries. Perhaps every academic specialising in studies related to children and their development should read it to gain a glimpse of the problems encountered by developmentally disabled children in developing countries." --British Journal of Learning Disabilities Statistics indicate that the proportion of mentally handicapped persons in India is alarmingly high. Based on a path-breaking study of nearly 13,000 children living in the villages around Delhi, Medical Handicap Among Rural Indian Children reveals the ecological factors influencing children's mental development. This volume also identifies important psycho-social factors associated with mental handicap such as nutritional status, parenting, and the mothers' educational levels. The author makes important suggestions for possible intervention strategies for the prevention and amelioration of mental handicap in India and highlights specific roles that can be played out by all concerned with this problem; namely, the family, the community, voluntary agencies, and policy makers. The first study of its kind, Mental Handicap Among Rural Indian Children will be of immense value to psychologists, social workers, government officials, scholars of cultural studies, and all those involved with child development and mental retardation.
