Developmental Biolog Micheal

During the 1970s, Mícheál Ó Domhnaill was involved in some of the "most innovative projects and groups in Celtic music." After his first group, Skara Brae, disbanded in 1972, Ó Domhnaill travelled to Scotland where he collected Gaelic songs on the Islands of Lewis and Skye as part of his work with the School of Scottish studies. When he returned to Ireland, he collected and recorded songs in Donegal, many of which he found through his Aunt Neilli Ni Domhnaill, who possessed a large collection of local songs.

A practical step-by-step guide and follow-up companion

This book, drawing from internationally renowned scales like Bayley and Gesell, develops a child developmental assessment scale based on research data from Chinese children. It stands as a meticulous creation of the Capital Institute of Pediatrics, a national-level institution for children’s development research in China. The scale demonstrates good reliability and validity, meeting psychometric standards in various statistical aspects. In the revised scale, developmental quotients are classified into six levels, distributions of percentiles for developmental quotients are provided, and screening indices for autism spectrum disorders are added. In doing so, the revised scale can not only identify developmental delays but also concurrently screen for autism spectrum disorder risks, providing a foundational reference for tracking children’s developmental status in follow-up studies. The book holds vital value and significance in fostering communication among scholars from universities and research institutions, as well as pediatricians, neurologists, and rehabilitation specialists in hospitals.

This new reference provides a comprehensive overview of intellectual and developmental disabilities, incorporating multiple perspectives and disciplines (including developmental neuroscience, genetics, psychiatry, and psychology) with a multifaceted approach, offering readers appreciation for the richness of the population and field. It provides readers with an understanding of the developmental, biological, and behavioral aspects of developmental disabilities with the aim of understanding their causes, the differences between disabilities, and familiarity with the prognosis and developmental outcomes for children diagnosed with various developmental disabilities.

This book provides a comprehensive overview of the molecular basis of developmental and stem cell regulation. It revisits some of the classical models of developmental biology and puts them in context with the findings of modern stem cell research and developmental biology.

This book characterizes South Korea’s pre-neoliberal regime of social governance as developmental liberalism and analyzes the turbulent processes and complex outcomes of its neoliberal degeneration since the mid-1990s. Instead of repeating the politically charged critical view on South Korea’s failure in socially inclusionary and sustainable development, the author closely examines the systemic interfaces of the economic, political, and social constituents of its developmental transformation.

This book approaches consumer psychology from a unique perspective - it covers the entire lifespan, from birth to old age. Childhood and youth are not discussed as areas special, different and remote from the rest of consumer research but are integrated into our development as humans. Consumption is viewed as a process by groups and individuals with the cycle continuing through to disposal or ownership and possession.
