Those suffering with perceptuo-motor difficulties are often described as being clumsy. The latest research shows that the problems associated with this condition frequently persist through adolescence and into adult life. This study has been designed to help children, adolescents and adults by providing practical information to solve the problems that occur throughout life. The book briefly covers theory and remediation in childhood. The real focus of the text is on adolescence and adulthood. Adolescence is a particularly sensitive stage, with comments and attitudes of peers seeming especially important. School, community and home life are considered. Routines skills that the majority of us are able to perform with little thought or effort are covered: posture and personal appearance, choosing and sustaining an appropriate career, coping with domestic and child care activities, leisure pursuits and hobbies. A glossary of terminology, addresses of suppliers of equipment and societies with an interest in the problem are included.
