A Clinician's Guide to Normal Cognitive Development in Childhood

This book marries developmental science with clinical practice. It's a great resource for anyone who works with children, including teachers, clinicians, childcare providers, and parents. Children's behavior can seem mysterious and idiosyncratic. This book puts it all in perspective by explaining the typical course of cognitive and socio-emotional development, and relating these changes to clinical situations. This is an invaluable guide for communicating with children and interpreting their behaviour.
