It considers all aspects of cerebral palsy from the causes to clinical problems and their implications for individuals. Leading scientists present the evidence on the role of pre-term birth, inflammation, hypoxia, endocrinological and other pathways. They explore opportunities for neuroprotection leading to clinical applications.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAn international team of experts provides clinicians and researchers with key information on the mechanisms underlying impairments in movement, development, cognition, communication, vision, feeding, behaviour, sexuality, and musculoskeletal deformities.  They present a wide range of person-centred assessment approaches, including clinical evaluation, measurement scales, neuroimaging and gait analysis. The principles of multi-disciplinary management are presented, in terms of therapist intervention, medication and surgery. The perspective of the book spans the lifelong course of cerebral palsy, taking into account worldwide differences in socio-economic and cultural factors. Many chapters are illustrated with clinical vignettes enabling direct translation into practice.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFull integrated colour, with extensive cross-referencing make this a highly attractive and useful reference.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1 Historical Perspective\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2 Definition and Clinical Classification\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3 Parenting a Child with Cerebral Palsy:  Family and Social Issues\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4 Personal Perspectives\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5 Cerebral Palsy in Adulthood\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6 Global Health Perspective\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7 Brain Malformations\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e8 Perinatal Stroke\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e9 Pathways Involving Hypoxia-Ischaemia\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e10 Pathways Involving Bilirubin and other Brain-Injuring Agents\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e11 Maternal-Fetal Infection\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e12 Endocrine Pathways\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e13 Non-inflammatory and Non-endocrine Pathways from Prematurity to Cerebral Palsy\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e14 Neural Basis of Motor Control\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e15 Clinical Presentation\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e16 Neuroimaging\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e17 Clinical Neurophysiology\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e18 Orthopaedic Assessment\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e19 Motion Analysis\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e20 Intervention planning, implementation and evaluation\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e21 Enhancing activity and participation with assistive technology\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e22 Resources for people with cerebral palsy, parents, and families\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e23 Muscle Tone, Strength and Movement Disorders\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e24 Postural Control\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e25 Oromotor Function\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e26 Hand Function\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e27 Lower Limb Function\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e28 Cognition\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e29 Visual function\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e30 Hearing and Vestibular Function\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e31 Communication\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e32 Behaviour and Mental Health\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e33 Sleep\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e34 Epilepsy\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e35 Feeding and Nutrition\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e36 Respiratory Problems\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e37 Urinary function\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e38 Sexual Development, Sexual Health, Needs and Life experiences\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProfessor Bernard Dan\u003c\/strong\u003e MD is a paediatric neurologist, head of the department of neurology and associate medical director at the H?pital Universitaire des Enfants Reine Fabiola, Brussels, Belgium, and full professor of neurophysiology and developmental neurology at the Université Libre de Bruxelles.
