Produktbeschreibung

The study of developmental disorders is an enormous and intrinsically multi-disciplinary field of research. The articles in this five-volume collection cover the myriad genetic and non-genetic developmental psychopathological conditions which are now known and being researched from a variety of perspectives, from dyslexia to autism and beyond. Covering a broad range of considerations around the topic, the papers in this major work seek to capture historical antecedents, contemporary themes, conceptual issues and cutting-edge methods in the study of human neurodevelopmental disorders. Each volume opens with a contextualising introductory passage written by the editors and the volumes are organised thematically for ease of navigation: Volume One: Disorder Typology and explanatory frameworks Volume Two: Behaviourally defined developmental disorders Volume Three: Genetically defined developmental disorders Volume Four: Developmental disorders and the environment Volume Five: Multi-disciplinary approaches to developmental disorders

Autorenporträt

Michael S.C. Thomas is a Professor of Cognitive Neuroscience at Birkbeck College, University of London, UK. He received a B.Sc. in psychology from the University of Exeter, an M.Sc. in cognitive science from the University of Birmingham, and a D. Phil. in experimental psychology (on behavioural and computational studies of bilingualism) from the University of Oxford. His research focuses on language and cognitive development, and specifically on neurocomputational explanations of the cognitive variability seen in typical children and in children with developmental disorders. His research employs behavioural methods, brain imaging, and computational modelling. He has been working in the field of developmental disorders for 15 years, and has published two books and over 50 scientific articles. He was part of a research team thatwas awarded the Queen's Anniversary Prize for Higher Education in 2006 forthe project "Neuropsychological work with the very young: understanding brain function and cognitive development". He is director of the Developmental Neurocognition Laboratory (www.psyc.bbk.ac.uk/research/DNL) in the Centre for Brain and Cognitive Development, and Director of the Centre for Educational Neuroscience (www.educationalneuroscience.org.uk/), a tri-institutional collaboration between UCL, Institute of Education and Birkbeck College which has the mission of building translational links between neuroscience and education. Annette Karmiloff-Smith was, until she "retired" in 2003, Head of the Neurocognitive Development Unit at the Institute of Child Health, London where she ran a research team studying typical and atypical infant and child cognitive development. She now occupies a Professorial Research Fellowship at Birkbeck's Centre for Brain and Cognitive Development. She has a "Doctorat en Psychologie Génétique et Expérimentale" from Geneva University, where she studied and worked with Piaget. Elected fellow of various distinguished societies and several honorary doctorates, she was awarded the 1995 BPS Book Award for Beyond Modularity (MIT Press, 1992). Her co-authored book, Rethinking Innateness: AConnectionist Perspective on Development, (MIT Press, 1996) was nominated forthe 1997 APA Eleanor Maccoby Prize. She has just published Neurodevelopmental Disorders across the Lifespan (Oxford University Press, 2012). She is the author of 13 books and over 300 articles and chapters, as well as a series of booklets for parents on different aspects of foetal, infant and child development. Her current research focuses on Down syndrome as a model for understanding Alzeihmer'sdisease at the genetic, cellular, neural and cognitive levels. http: //www.bbk.ac.uk/psychology/our-staff/academic/annette-karmiloff-smith
