Genetic disorders in children can have highly variable effects. Even relatively
common disorders may go undiagnosed and untreated by clinicians who are not familiar
with the range of atypical cognitive or behavioral symptoms possible in an affected
child. Recent research in genetics and brain development has altered the phenotypic
description of various disorders, but this new knowledge is not readily available to
practitioners. This collection provides a single resource that will help clinicians,
pediatricians, neuropsychologists, educators, and others use the latest research to
identify and treat a variety of genetic disorders as early as possible.
