By Ad van den Broek, Brian Twint, Jac de Bruijn, et al.

Emotional Development and Intellectual Disability is an authoritative, practical guide to the importance of emotions and emotional development in the needs and lives of people with intellectual disabilities, and in their care and support. Combining research, assessment and practice, the book explores this complex topic from a number of positive perspectives including emotional development as an adaptive behaviour, emotional development as a support need, and emotional development as a quality of life domain.

The aim is to help people working with or caring for those with intellectual disabilities to understand emotions better and use that understanding in real-world practice.
