Summary: Review: Handbook of Neurodevelopmental and Genetic Disorders
Comment: The Handbook of Neurodevelopmental and Genetic Disorders in Children, edited by Sam Goldstein Ph.D. and Cecil Reynolds Ph.D. is a well written, in depth discussion of the impact of genetics on the neurodevelopment of children.
The book is divided into three parts. The first addresses the role of neuropsychology in the assessment and treatment of children with neurodevelopmental and genetic disorders. The second part concerns five disorders with genetic etiologies that primarily affect learning and behavior: learning disabilities, ADHD, Tourette syndrome, anxiety disorders and autism. The final part deals with 14 less common disorders which have genetic etiologies and physical/medical manifestations, as well as effects on learning and behavior: Turner Syndrome, Fragile X Syndrome, Mucopolysaccharidoses, Noonan Syndrome, Neurofibromatosis, Sickle Cell Disease, Down Syndrome, Klinefelter Syndrome, Phenylketonuria, Rett Syndrome, Lesch-Nyhan Syndrome, Seizure Disorders, Prader-Willi Syndrome and Williams Syndrome. Each of the chapters on specific disorders discusses the current understanding of the genetic etiology of the disorders, behavioral and developmental manifestations, and guides to assessment.
The book will serve the purposes of many people. Those wanting to do research on a disease can find a quick history on the research and the issues which remain outstanding. Those interested in clinical issues can find clear descriptions, diagnostic considerations and treatment recommendations. All will benefit by learning about the genetic bases, incidence and comorbidity of the various diseases.
