The contributions, all of which are based on the latest theories and research, demonstrate that the application of a developmental perspective to the study of young children with Down syndrome sheds light on the universality of ontogenetic sequences, stages, and structures, and highlights the respective roles of biological, perceptual-cognitive, linguistic, social, and emotional factors in the developmental process. Finally, it is shown that the application of a developmental perspective will suggest age and stage-appropriate interventions for Down syndrome children and their families. This will be a suitable book for psychologists, psychiatrists, special education teachers, pediatricians, and other medical researchers interested in Down syndrome and mental retardation, as well as graduate students in these areas.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51940655431968,"sku":"NEW0521386675","price":78.17,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/children-with-down-syndrome-a-developmental-perspective-0521386675","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
