Burack, Jacob A, Hodapp, Robert M, Zigler: Handbook of Mental
Retardation and Development. Cambridge University Press. 782 pages, 1998
This book reviews theoretical and empirical work in the developmental approach
to mental retardation. Armed with methods derived from the study of typically
developing children, developmentalists have recently learned about the mentally
retarded child's own development in a variety of areas. These areas now
encompass many aspects of cognition, language, social and adaptive functioning,
as well as of maladaptive behavior and psychopathology. In addition to a focus
on individuals with mental retardation themselves, familial and other "ecological"
factors have influenced developmental approaches to mental retardation.
Comprised of twenty-seven chapters on various aspects of development, this
handbook provides a timely, comprehensive guide to understanding mental
retardation and development.
