Editorial Reviews
Review
" This little book is a gem. ... a gold mine of information that will prove useful to physicians, psychologists, and educators, In many respects, I found the book to be as helpful as many longer erudite volumes are on the topic of Tourette syndrome, and strongly recommend it." Annals of the RCPSC (Dec 1998)

Product Description
Gilles de la Tourette Syndrome (or Tourette's Syndrome), is an inherited neuropsychiatric disorder affecting about 5 people in every 10,000. It is characterized by motor and vocal tics, and upsetting anti-social behavior such as involuntary swearing and obscene gestures. This book, written by a psychologist and a psychiatrist who have been researching Tourette's Syndrome for many years, explains the causes of the syndrome, how it is diagnosed, and the ways in which it can be treated. Essential reading for Tourette's sufferers, their relatives and friends, Tourette's Syndrome: The Facts will also be of use to clinicians, family physicians, schoolteachers, and anyone seeking an accessible introduction to the disorder.
