Caring for the Special Child was written by trusted and prominent personalities in the fields of development pediatrics, genetics, rehabilitation medicine, psychiatry, occupational therapy, physical thepary, speech pathology, and public health. Their personal and professional experiences combined make for an engaging book for parents and caregivers that discusses how can meet the physical, sensorimotor, cognitive, social, and emotional needs of children with special needs. This work was designed as a self-learning material for a course offered by the UP Open University, but can be useful to anyone who seeks to improve the quality of life of these children through a multidisciplinary approach that acknowledges the value of a supportive family and community.
