THE STUDENT WITH A GENETIC DISORDER
The purpose of this book is to acquaint professionals who work with children who have a genetic disorder with the common physical characteristics, learning profiles, and health and psychosocial problems found in these conditions. The uniqueness and individual strengths and characteristics of each child are clearly recognized. The disorders chosen for discussion are those in which intervention can have a significant impact on the child's comfort and/or ultimate adult functioning. By having adequate information, educational, social, and therapy programs can be developed to fit the individual needs of the child. The text begins with a review of basic genetic principles and the general characteristics of a genetic syndrome. It gives general information that is appropriate to many conditions such as the elements of a barrier-free school, the role of therapists, and when to consider referral to a genetic clinic. Over forty specific genetic disorders are then individually described and specific medical, educational, therapy, and psychosocial issues for each are addressed. Also included are a glossary, resource directory, and other suggested readings.
