Description
From the Preface
Mothers of children with problems carry a tremendous emotional load. Few occupations carry as much, and those that do carry a different kind. Fathers of neurologically handicapped children do not escape from the burden, but they carry it differently. Sometimes the weight of the problem seems too much to bear, and the presence or severity of the problem is denied in order to cope. Or parents recognize the severity and then they search and search for better answers to a difficult situation. This book will not end that search, for it does not have all the answers; but it will give many parents the opportunity to understand their child better. The greater the understanding of a problem, the more effectively it is helped. This book was written to promote that understanding.

Condition
See photo above. The covers show handling/storage, with wear on the corner tips as shown. The spine has not been opened/creased. The pages are in good condition with some markings/writing in ink and some yellow highlighter in the first third of the book. I found some bent corners and there is also moisture ripple at the bottom edge of the back pages. No names, but college bookstore stamp on the front as shown. From clean, smoke-free home.
Shipping
Generally sent the same day payment arrives. Unless you request otherwise, I will wrap the book in plastic wrap to help protect it from the elements, create a custom-made cardboard box to ship it in (or sandwich in cardboard), and send via Media Mail with Delivery Confirmation tracking. See the shipping page for the cost to send a one-pound Media Mail package. Insurance is an additional cost as described. I am delighted to combine postage and insurance costs if you purchase more than one item. The second item may travel for free or just a few cents more — so it’s worth taking a look at my other items before you complete your order.
