A long-awaited book from developmental disorders expert John
Morton, Understanding Developmental Disorders: A Causal
Modelling Approach makes sense of the many competing theories
about what can go wrong with early brain development, causing a
child to develop outside the normal range.
- Based on the idea that understanding developmental disorders
requires us to talk about biological, cognitive, behavioral and
environmental factors, and to talk about causal relationships among
these elements.
- Explains what causal modelling is and how to do it.
- Compares different theories about particular developmental
disorders using causal modelling.
- Will have a profound impact on research in the fields of psychology, neuroscience and medicine.
