This text builds a comprehensive base from which students can approach challenges that lie outside their own settings and learn how to promote optimal development in infants who are at risk and disabled as early as possible. The second edition has been greatly expanded to reflect current issues and trends in family-centered care and interventions, cultural diversity, and health and medical risks. The focus of the text is on the transactional nature of the infant's development within the contexts of the family and community. The book's scope includes educational, psychological, and medical information relevant to infant development, making it ideal for university courses in special education, health service professions, and social services. With chapters by experts in various fields, the interdisciplinary text presents an overview of research and literature on both normal and atypical infant development and suggests models and practices for application to early interventions with infants who are at risk and disabled.
