Children with Learning Disabilities by Dabie Nabuzoka

Children with Learning Disabilities by Dabie Nabuzoka

Provides an account of the social cognitive development of children with learning disabilities and discusses ways in which this might be related to their social adjustment. The book provides an overview of research in this area and, with the use of various models, examines aspects of social functioning. Applications of research to educational and other more general settings are discussed, as are implications for the design of intervention strategies.

'.. The book is well disciplined in its structure and is able to separate subjects for the purpose of focused explication without losing sight of the interconnections with the subjects tackled elsewhere. The information provided is of interest to anyone who comes into contact with children with learning difficulties. Students, as well as professionals such as teachers, social workers, therapists and researchers will find the research described here, and Nabuzoka's discussion of it a source of useful information and an instrument for change.'
