"In looking at the issues surrounding children and their behavior, the authors emphasize that behaviors result from multiple causes and cannot be addressed in a linear fashion with any single strategy... Some children act as they do because of their bodies' reactions to sensory input... and aggressive or defiant behaviors.. may all have a sensory cause. Clinicians, teachers and parents will find this a useful resource for unraveling the mysteries of why children adapt certain behaviors and learning how to deal with them." - BOOK JACKET

A great book that aims to differentiate sensory issues from learned behaviours. Many therapists are happy that someone is shining a light on this very complex area. Sensory and behaviour tend to be interwoven and can be difficult to pull apart. This book really helps with this task.

This book is a good resource to explain sensory issues and how they relate to challenging behaviours. HOWEVER, some of the interventions suggested in this book, including use of isolation and dangerous methods of restraint, are completely unethical and could result in physical and mental harm. Please approach with caution.
