Editorial Reviews
"This useful and unique book can be used as a reference for specific issues related to fragile X, as an overview of particular topics, and as a comprehensive review of all of the various aspects of this condition." -- William O. Walker, Jr., Doody's Health Sciences Review
"Includes updated chapters on the cytogenetic and molecular biology of the FXS mutation and premutation. The first half addresses the diagnosis and research aspects and is well referenced. The latter half is dedicated to treatment and intervention. The chapter that emphasizes an integrated approach to intervention could easily qualify for continuing medical education credit." -- Journal of the American Medical Association
"This book should sit on the library shelves of clinical geneticists. It is well written, well referenced, and should become well thumbed." -- Journal of Medical Genetics

"The clinical and cytogenetic material in this book is excellent and provides a strong background for physicians and students...

Physicians, students, and other interested professionals can either read this book from cover to cover or select the chapters that interest or apply to them." -- New England Journal of Medicine
