Greenspan, Stanley I., Serena Wieder, Robin Simons. The Child with Special Needs: Encouraging Intellectual and Emotional Growth. Reading, Massachusetts: Perseus, 1998.

The Child with Special Needs (Book Cover)(From the back cover) Based upon two decades of practice and original research into developmental disabilities, this essential work helps parents and professionals "get beyond the label" and understand each child's unique profile. The authors' new insights regarding human development and learning have enabled them to create a step-by-step approach that initiates and sustains the child's mastery of the most important developmental milestones.
