Nicht gesellschaftsfähig? Ein Report über spastisch gelähmte Kinder (1970)

Not socially acceptable? A report on spastic paralyzed children. Of around 900,000 children born in Germany every year, around 6,000 have spastic paralysis, i.e. brain damage. Brain damage, but that doesn't necessarily mean mental weakness. Only about half of all those affected are more or less mentally retarded. But it is precisely those who are normally gifted who feel their outsider role most clearly. / What actually is a spasticity, why is it so, can it be cured, and what can be done to enable spastic children to lead a largely independent life later on?
