Tourette's syndrome : tics, obsessions, compulsions

Once thought to be rare, Tourette's Syndrome is now seen as a relatively common childhood disorder either in its complete or partial incarnations.

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.
