"A unique book assimilating knowledge from medical, therapeutic, social and teaching spheres in order to make role players commissioning and designing in the built environment aware of people's diverse neurological needs. This book will allow project commissioners, architects and designers to create environments that are more 'mind friendly' for all. Although not a 'how to guide' 5 useful sections, will also suggest practical applications throughout the discussion. Using sensory integration theory, stress responses in a range of neurological conditions such as dementia, dyslexia and autism to their built environments are explored consistently through the lens of the built environment" -- Provided by publisher.
