"One of the first books exclusively devoted to applying the theories, findings, and approaches used in work with nonretarded children to several types of retarded individual. The editors and contributors define the developmental approach and explore theoretical issues as they relate to retarded populations. Problems involving similar sequences of development, cross-domain relations, the enviornment, and motivation are all discussed, as is the importance of separating the verious etiological groups for research and intervention purposes. The contributors also examine the nature of development in specific etiological groups; types of retardation that are addressed include: cultural-familial retardation, Down syndrome, fragile X syndrome, autism, and children with sensory and motor handicaps. This book shows how data from nonretarded development can guide work with retarded populations, and how findings from children with mental retardation enrich developmental theory."

Book is clean and bright with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps, firmly bound. Gentle handling wear only. Issued without a dust jacket. -- This is a definitive medical text edited by Richard D. Guyer and Jack E. Zigler, founders of the renowned Texas Back Institute. The book documents a major shift in spinal surgery: the transition from traditional fusion (which eliminates motion) to motion-preserving technologies like artificial disc replacement. Core Focus & Content: - Philosophy of Motion Preservation: It explores the science behind maintaining spinal mobility to prevent "adjacent segment disease," where fusion causes accelerated wear on the vertebrae above and below the surgical site; - Device History & Development: Provides a detailed look at the evolution of spinal implants from the mid-1980s through the early 2000s, often featuring insights from the original inventors; - Clinical Techniques: Offers a comprehensive guide to surgical procedures for both lumbar (lower back) and cervical (neck) arthroplasty; - Patient Selection: Outlines specific criteria for identifying which patients are most likely to benefit from artificial discs versus traditional fusion. At its release, the book served as a foundational resource for the "New Era" of spine care, moving the field toward total joint replacement standards similar to those used for hips and knees. It is heavily cited by spine surgeons and researchers for its data on clinical results and long-term stability. -- Contents: Foreword / Alexander R. Vaccaro; Foreword / Stephen H.
