Tics and Tourette Syndrome: A Handbook for Parents and Professionals

This is an excellent book for self education on tics and tourettes. Many people don't understand this disorder. I have a child with tics and this book teaches ways to help reduce them. Loved it.

This book was very helpful because it offers great ideas for managing Tourette. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to know how to help people with Tourette.

my daughter was diagnosed with Tourrettes Syndrome and I use the book for myself and others to learn more to understand her. I helps in the patients side of it

Item came as described. Would buy from this buyer again.

This book is good for general information. Give you all the topics about Tourette Syndrome. It's excellent for parents and professionals that are beginning reader about TS. Help you a lot to begin to understand all concerning with the Tourette Syndrome.

This is by far the most useful book I have read on Tourette Syndrome, as well as one of the best books I have read on special needs in general. "Tics and Tourette Syndrome" is short enough and concise enough that an overwhelmed parent can read it in one sitting. Do not be fooled by the book's length, however. Word for word, this book contains more useful information than any other book I have read; there is no filler, there are no anecdotes.If you have time for only one book on Tourette's, this is the book. That is a very tired line, I know, but in this case it really is true. I have recommended this book to other parents of children with Tourette's as well as to friends and relatives, in an effort to dispel misconceptions about what Tourette's is and is not.

My 5 year old is in the process of getting diagnosed with TS. I wanted to educate myself the best I could to better understand the condition. After reading this book I feel like i know everything there is to know about Tourettes syndrome. Its beautifully written and can be understood easilly by the non medical professionals. I would 100% recommend to anyone that wants to educate themselves on TS. I purchased a used copy and it was in a great condition.

The book was recommended to me by the Peadiatric Consultant my son is seeing due to tics. It is a great book and I have told the school about the teacher chapter to help them learn more about this condition. This put my mind at rest as it proved it was not something which I had done as a parent to create these tics (most people think it is caused by anxiety but in fact it is a medical condition that can be made worse in anxious situations).Great book will be recommending it to other parents!

I already knew a lot that is in the book as I have been google researching, but its useful for those that have little knowledge to gain a better understanding. Clearly laid out, easy reading,

I have not yet read the book but, my wife has. She says it is really informative and easy to read and translate into layman terms. It sympathetically goes through symptoms and explains some reasons and causes for Tics and Tourettes. A really useful guide.

This book was informative without being heavy on the medical wording. Perfect read for a Parent
