Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder - Henryk Holowenko - Bog - Jessica Kingsley Publishers - Plusbog.dk

''This tiny but useful book for practitioners in a variety of areas attempts to define ADHD and investigates the etiology of this condition.

At the end of the book there is a very useful Appendix or Appendices which help parents to assess their children''s difficulties over a period of time with or without the use of medication. Despite the fact that this book is only comparatively short, it contains a considerable amount of useful practical information for a number of individuals working with or assessing children suffering from ADHD.''- Dr L. F. Lowenstein''Henry Holowenko''s book is written following his experiences as an educational psychologist on a multidisciplinary working group in Devon... excellent chapters on intervention at school and at home.''- Educational Psychology in PracticeAttention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (AD/HD) is a medical diagnostic label for a mixed group of disruptive behaviours in children, which influences their development, family relationships and social interaction. AD/HD is part of a child''s make-up: it is not a disease, but a pattern of problem behaviour, much of which is largely outside the sufferer''s control.Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder: A Multidisciplinary Approach provides clear guidelines on good practice in assessment, diagnosis and management of, and provision for, children with AD/HD. Written for teachers, parents, medical practitioners, psychologists and other professionals, Holowenko''s multidisciplinary approach stresses the collaborative nature of successful management of the condition. The book is based on the work of an interdisciplinary group whose aim was to identify a consensus view on the disparate positions on AD/HD.

Share the Care' - Kirsten Stalker - Bog - Jessica Kingsley Publishers - Plusbog.dk

The provision of respite care within families is a relatively new development and the ad hoc nature of individual schemes has resulted in a great variation in their character; relatively little research has been carried out into the policy and practice of this important development in community care. ''Share the Care'' examines: the different ways in which respite care schemes operate, focusing in particular on the Share-the-Care service in Lothian; the experience of parents of children with learning difficulties of using the scheme; respite carers: who joins the scheme and why, their perceptions of its rewards and dissatisfactions, and their experience of social work support; the less positive effects of separation upon the children themselves; families facing an extended wait for respite; families who withdraw from the scheme.
