The Mentally Defective Child: Written Specially for School Teachers, and Others Interested in the Educational Treatment and After-Care of Mentally Defective School Children (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from The Mentally Defective Child: Written Specially for School Teachers, and Others Interested in the Educational Treatment and After-Care of Mentally Defective School Children
The question of mental deficiency, particularly as it affects school children, has quite recently assumed considerable importance. Members of Education Committees, Directors of Education, School Medical Officers, School Teachers, Members of Care or After-Care Committees, Members and Officers of Local Authorities formed under the provisions of the Mental Deficiency Act, 1913, and many others find themselves called upon to assist in discovering these sometimes difficult cases, and in devising means for their training, care and control.
Though there are many excellent books written for the medical profession - from many of which indeed I have freely quoted in these pages - I do not know of any which have been specially written for the layman. The Central Association for the Care of the Mentally Defective recently inaugurated a highly successful Special Summer Course of training on this subject for School Teachers at Birmingham and, as part of this course, I was invited to give a series of short lectures on the medical aspect of the subject.
