Tourette syndrome is a neurological disorder that affects 100,000 to 250,000 children in the United States. Symptoms include multiple tics and involuntary vocalizations, and usually emerge in children between the ages of four and ten. It is also frequently associated with obsessive-compulsive disorder and attention-deficit disorder.

Written by a team of professionals and parents, this book covers medical, educational, legal, family life, daily care, and emotional issues, as well as explanations of related conditions. Every chapter concludes with a collection of Parent Statements - passages written by parents who candidly share their experiences and feelings, much as they would during a parent support group meeting. 352 pages. 45 photos. 1992. $14.95.
