Summary:

Developmental Disorders of the Brain addresses disabilities that occur or have their roots in the early, developmental phase of life which are of utmost concern to parents, siblings, carers, and teachers. This text describes the latest clinical and behavioural findings of disorders which largely or entirely involve the frontostriatal (basal ganglia) system including Tourette's, Obsessive-Compulsive and Attention-Deficit-Hyperactivity disorders. Schizophrenia, and Developmental Motor Co-ordination. Examples of disorders involving the frontocerebellar also feature such as Asperger's disorder, Williams, Fragile X, and Cerebellar Cognitive Affective syndromes, and Friedreich Ataxia. Relevant anatomy, physiology and pathology, and some of the major functions mediated by affected or relevant structures are discussed, together with accounts of the latest recording, brain imaging and stimulating techniques. Covering both frontostriatal and frontocerebellar systems which control and direct normal behaviour, and which can fail with often distressing consequences during development, as well as addressing behavioural, clinical, pathophysiological and technical aspects, this text is vital to understanding, diagnosis and management of developmental disorders of the brain. This text will be of great interest to clinicians, researchers, teachers, parents and those who are themselves affected by developmental disorders. Book jacket.
