Synopsis:
- Family-centered interventions and vignette-style case examples appear throughout.
- Academicians (in the systems chapters) and clinicians (in the sections on settings, supports, and case studies) provide a balance of theory and practice.
- Disease-specific case studies highlight multisystem involvement of many common pediatric diagnoses, build critical thinking skills, and demonstrate real-life applications.
- Content follows the practice patterns set by APTA's Guide to Physical Therapist Practice.
- Organizational structure uses the World Health Organization’s International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health (ICF) model—the first text to do so.
- Narrated video recordings online with closed captioning of children with disabilities being evaluated and receiving intervention.
