The incidence of handicap from syndromes and inherited disorders is world-wide and causes common problems for families and society. This edition has been extended to include 20 extra syndromes and additional material to aid the reader in contacting self-help groups. It provides a practical reference for carers and those with a syndrome or inherited disorder, describing the disorders and problems of both child and adult, considers the day-to-day management of conditions and is written in non-technical language for a wider audience but with enough detail for the medical, nursing and midwifery professions. Whilst new methods of diagnosis, investigation and treatment will, of course, occur over the next few years, the basics described in this book will still apply. As a basis for assessing needs and potential in their students and clients, social workers, nursery nurses and educationalists should find this reference source of value. This book should be of interest to paediatric and nursery nurses, social workers, teachers and child carers.
