"Edited by two of the leading international authorities on Tourette's Syndrome and tic-related, obsessive-compulsive disorders, Tourette's Syndrome is the most up-to-date edited reference covering this neuropsychiatric disorder and related disorders from a variety of perspectives. Featuring contributors from the world-renowned Yale Child Study Center, this volume introduces a groundbreaking developmental framework for understanding Tourette's–defined by persistent motor and vocal tics and frequently associated with obsessions, compulsions, and attentional difficulties–and maps out the diagnosis, genetics, manifestations, and treatment. Reflecting more than 25 years of research, this comprehensive resource describes the major categories of disorders (TS, obsessive-compulsive disorder, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, learning disabilities) as well as the strengths and adaptation of individuals with Tourette's. A broad, detailed discussion of pathogenesis is provided, including epidemiological studies and environmental risk and protective factors. The book also highlights the necessary partnerships between children, families, and clinicians in the struggle to achieve wished-for outcomes. Enriched by the knowledge of specialists at the forefront of genetics, psychology, neuropsychology, pharmacology, neurochemistry, and epidemiology, among other fields, Tourette's Syndrome gives clinicians valuable insight into the minds of and proper care for individuals battling this and related disorders."--with a bonus offer--

Drawing on the work of contributors hailing from the prestigeous Yale University Child Psychiatry Department, this edited volume explores the disorder from many persepctives, mapping out the diagnosis, genetics, phenomenology, natural history, and treatment of Tourette's Syndrome. --REVIEWS: From The New England Journal of Medicine, September 30, 1999-In 1885, the French neurologist Georges Gilles de la Tourette, describing the first nine patients with Gilles de la Tourette syndrome, stated, "Everything is extraordinary in this disease: the name is ridiculous, its symptoms peculiar, its character equivocal, its cause unknown, its treatment problematical." More than a century later, this statement still holds, although the name of the disease has been changed to Tourette's syndrome (or Tourette's disorder). Considered rare and exotic at that time, Tourette's syndrome is a relatively common childhood-onset disorder characterized by multiple motor and vocal tics. Often lifelong in duration, the full syndrome affects up to 1 person in 2500 and the partial forms two or three times that many. In addition to tics, most patients have other symptoms such as obsessions, compulsions, motor hyperactivity, impulsivity, and distractibility, and many meet the criteria for the diagnosis of obsessive-compulsive disorder or attention-deficit-hyperactivity disorder. A variety of sensory and mental states, including urges and a buildup of tension, precede the tics and subside after the tics occur. Vulnerability to Tourette's syndrome is transmitted within families, although the gene or genes conferring vulnerability have yet to be fully identified. Although much has been learned about the symptoms, character, and course of this fascinating disorder since Gilles de la Tourette's original description, its cause is still unknown and its treatment remains challenging, even with modern pharmacotherapy. No one is more qualified to contribute a comprehensive textbook on the current understanding of the development of Tourette's syndrome than James Leckman and Donald Cohen of the Yale Child Study Center. With the help of their colleagues, Leckman and Cohen have broadened the scope of their last major book, Tourette's Syndrome and Tic Disorders: Clinical Understanding and Treatment (edited by D. J. Cohen, R. D. Bruun, and J. F. Leckman. New...
