This book traces the causes of disabilities—mental, physical and social—among the children, and emphasizes the need of special care and education for them. It describes in detail the types of impairment, methods of identification, and educational provision for them, with special focus on physical and health impairment, sensory disabilities, mentally challenged, giftedness, autism, creative child and behavioural disorders. The issue of their rehabilitation has also been addressed. The book is useful for teachers, parents, policy makers and development activists.
