Help Them Help Themselves

The author of this book is adequately equipped to discuss the problem of the cerebral palsied child from the viewpoint of both the therapist and the parent. Not only has she been actively engaged in her professional capacity as a speech pathologist in the treatment of these children, but she is also the mother of a child so afflicted.

The author introduces the subject by describing the problem that she had to face as a mother. She then proceeds to discuss the general training problem in these children including the feeding, sleeping, toilet training, training for locomotion, hand function, speech and general education of the child.
