Synopsis
Endorsed by The Prader-Willi Syndrome Association, this manual brings together the considerable expertise of various professionals in the diagnosis and management of PWS. The book presents the historical, medical, and genetic background as an orientation aid for the reader before going on to explore the clinical, social, familial, and community issues and so pinpoint management strategies. Rather than becoming weighed down in research and diagnosis, the editors place the emphasis on pragmatic guidelines, thus clearly tailoring the text to the needs of health and educational specialists in academic, clinical, and community settings.
