A theme that runs through the book is that movement outcomes are a complex transaction of child resources, the context in which movement takes place, and the manner in which tasks are presented. The core themes of the book involve descriptions of motor development from conception through to emerging adulthood, explanations of motor development from differing theoretical, empirical, and experiential perspectives, and descriptions and explanations of atypical motor development when the resources of the child are limited in some way.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eReadership:\u003c\/b\u003e Occupational therapists, physiotherapists, paediatricians, teachers (physical education, early childhood development, elementary education), educational psychologists, kinesiology and sports scientists.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eChapter 1:  An Introduction to Motor Development\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 2: Biological Influences on Developmental Change\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 3: Developmental Models and Theories, Motor Control and Development Theories:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 4:  Early Movement Development: Birth to 24 Months\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 5:  Motor Development of Young Children: Two to Seven Years of Age\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 6:  A Movement Development of Young Children; Seven Years of Age through Puberty\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 7:  Cerebral Palsy: The Condition\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 8: Developmental Co-ordination Disorder\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 9: Children with Intellectual Disability\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 10: Motor Development in Children with Other Developmental Disorders\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 11: Children with Visual Impairment\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 12:  Assessment and Intervention for Children with Movement Difficulties\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 13: Perspectives on Development: Typical and Atypical\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDavid Sugden\u003c\/b\u003e has an academic background in developmental psychology, special education and physical education, his PhD is from the University of California at Los Angeles. He has taught in primary, secondary and special schools as well as lecturing at college and university level in the UK and the USA. His specialist research interests include motor development, motor impairment, motor learning, and children with developmental disorders. His work centres on the characteristics of typically developing children and those with various forms of impairment. He is co-author of the most widely used assessment instrument for motor difficulties, the Movement Assessment Battery for Children.

Their comprehensive discussion of complex issues such as methodology, religious identities, and differing measurements, appeals to scholars in many disciplines working on religion and demographics.  This book is going to be the resource future generations of scholars will build on.\"—\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eRachel M.
