  This outstanding book was one of the first to be specifically written by and for educators and school personnel on traumatic brain injury in children.  Using many classroom examples, the authors present facts about brain injury, explain its developmental impact, immediate and long-term effects, and psychosocial issues.  Detailed chapters address planning for school reentry, student assessment, educational strategies and programs, and planning for transitions. 

  The authors are national leaders in designing and developing educational programs for students with traumatic brain injuries.  Their understanding of effective teaching, appreciation of classroom dynamics and knowledge of the special challenges and needs of students with brain injuries are brought together in this outstanding manual that will be an essential guide for school personnel.
