Product Description

Focuses entirely on health care of people with Down Syndrome throughout their life span, from birth to old age. With the remarkable strides that have been made in research and medicine in the past decade, people with Down Syndrome are living longer and healthier lives and are actively participating in all aspects of community life. Health care is a critical factor in this process. The first section explores the genetic basis for Down Syndrome as well as discusses speech and language development in children; the second section highlights clinical advances in treatment.
