'Review from previous edition This is an excellent book. Its open and sensitive approach is aimed principally at parents, however the breadth and depth of coverage is such that is will be of interest to most professionals working in this field. All the important areas are covered, includingsome such as marriage and procreation which are not always considered. The issues are presented in a clear factual manner, emphasising at all times the characteristics that people with Down Sumdrome have in common with all people - their individuality, dignity, right to choice and potential tobenefit from appropriate opportunity.'Journal of Paediatrics and Child Health, 'Review from previous edition This is an excellent book.
