The subsequent chapters present clinical situations that therapists will encounter in the course of their work with individuals with cerebral palsy across the lifespan. Each chapter describes a case in detail, including the reasoning behind assessment and treatment choices, interventions and outcomes.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe themes emphasized throughout the book are the use of the clinical reasoning approach of the intervention process model, the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health as a framework to help therapists inform patient and family decision-making, family-centred approaches in developing and implementing therapeutic strategies, and multidisciplinary team work.\u003c\/p\u003e  FOREWORD (\u003ci\u003ePeter Rosenbaum\u003c\/i\u003e).  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePART 1: BACKGROUND: KEY ISSUES IN PLANNING THERAPY FOR PEOPLE WITH CEREBRAL PALSY.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.

Physician specialists in cerebral palsy, particularly orthopedists, should find this book an excellent resource when prescribing an unfamiliar therapeutic intervention. In addition, the appendix, \"Assessment of the Individual With Cerebral Palsy,\" explains the purpose, validity, reliability, responsiveness, and clinical utility of common measurements used by therapists that should prove helpful when interpreting therapy progress notes.\" (\u003ci\u003eJAMA\u003c\/i\u003e, February 2011)\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cb\u003eKaren Dodd\u003c\/b\u003e is known for her research into the effects of therapeutic exercise for people with chronic disabilities, particularly neurological disabilities.
