Editor(s): Parish, Robert. Num Pages: 208 pages, Illustrations. BIC Classification: JNS. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 237 x 163 x 20. Weight in Grams: 382.
"The voices here confirm what I've always suspected: everyone is part of one large continuum, and the approaches and insights recounted here can help any parent, any educator, any person deal with any child—or, for that matter, any other person—more effectively and with more compassion. I only wish I'd encountered earlier this cadre of experienced and caring individuals whose humor and resourcefulness represent clearly how best to love and nurture a child."—Cynthia Nitz Ris, J.D., Ph.D., University of Cincinnati
