Del 186 - Clinics in Developmental Medicine
Visual Impairment in Children due to Damage to the Brain
AvGordon Dutton,Martin Bax
Inbunden, Engelska, 2010
1 246 kr
Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
Clinics in Developmental Medicine No.186 The increased awareness of cerebral visual impairment in children, combined with improved recognition of its wide ranging manifestations, has led to its recognition as the most common cause of visual impairment in children in the developed world. Yet the subject is in its infancy, with very little published to date. Information on this complex topic has been needed by all disciplines working with disabled children for many years.This ambitious book links the work of authors from many of the major research teams in this field, who have made significant contributions to the literature on the subject of cerebral visual impairment and provide a structured amalgam of the viewpoints of different specialists. The book contains some very novel concepts, which will be of great practical value to those who care for children with visual impairment due to brain injury. Summaries of the more specialist chapters as well as clear diagrams and a glossary have been provided to increase the book’s accessibility to a broader readership.This is an exciting and important field, to which this book makes a major contribution.

Comorbidities in Developmental Disorders
AvMartin Bax,Christopher Gillberg
Häftad, Engelska, 2010
904 kr
Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
Clinics in Developmental Medicine No. 187 In the last decade the term ‘comorbidity’ has gained popularity in the field of paediatric neurodisability, with the increasing recognition that many conditions are rarely present in isolation. Within this field, the term is often used to refer to the co-occurrence of conditions more frequently than would be expected by chance, which can include instances where one condition causes the other, where they share a common cause (for example, genetic), or where they are in fact manifestations of a single condition. Whether it is valid to use the term ‘comorbidity’ in all these situations, and how precisely it should be used, is something that the contributors to this book grapple with in their own fields of interest.The contributors, all world experts in their fields, also discuss what we can learn from the presence of comorbidities, however defined, about the aetiology and treatment of neurodevelopmental disabilities. In particular, they demonstrate how our increasing understanding of the mechanisms underlying the common association of many ‘comorbidities’ is helping us to understand the natural history of these conditions and improve our management of them.ReadershipPaediatricians, paediatric neurologists, child psychiatrists, neurodevelopmentalists, and physical, occupational and speech therapists working with children with developmental disabilities.

Love on the Borders
AvMartin Bax
Häftad, Engelska, 2005
111 kr
Tillfälligt slut
Innovative, erudite and enormously entertaining, Love on the Borders is the work of a unique literary mind: it follows spirited 40-something Celestine as she walks the length of Offa's Dyke - the ancient earthwork which traces the boundary between England and Wales - and recalls past passions, conjuring up discarded lovers and imagining what might have been. An immensely engaging story of love, lust and the power of the imagination, Love on the Borders is also a brilliantly sustained - and highly topical - meditation on the subject of borders in its broadest sense, as Bax's heroine travels the world, as well as the Dyke itself - from Zimbabwe to Jerusalem, from New York to Celestine's childhood India (setting of her mother's appalling murder).Woven into the narrative, with consummate skill, are fascinating anecdotes and digressions, as well as quotations from a lifetime's reading - including, pivotally, Lewis Carroll's The Hunting of the Snark, a work which exists in a different kind of borderland altogether, and which, as the novel progresses, assumes increasingly sinister significance...Love on the Borders is a novel about Britain, its relationship to the wider world and to its constituent parts; about borders and the conflicts they engender and play host to; about the body and its passions, and the liberating powers of the imagination. Audacious, compelling and utterly original, Love on the Borders - and especially Celestine herself - will capture readers' hearts and stimulate their minds.
