Demystifying Syndromes
|
 |
Editors: Dorothy M. Griffiths, M.D. and Robert
King, Ph.D.
Description:
This book was developed to be a practical summary of
some of the common syndromes related to developmental disability for
professionals and students in the field. The editors have selected
sonic common and some lesser known syndromes that are associated with
persons with developmental disabilities and coexisting mental or
behavioral challenges, specifically Fragile X, Down, Williams,
Smith-Magenis, Pervasive Developmental Disorders, Tourette’s,
22q Deletion, Smith-Lemli-Opitz, and Angelman Syndrome. The objective
was to demonstrate how and why support and treatment can be
individualized by recognizing the differential realities of persons,
with various syndromes, who are all labeled as developmentally disabled. |
