"Praise for A Family's Guide to Tourette Syndrome"
"I am delighted to see the breadth and wealth of valuable
clinical and scientific findings that have been gathered together
in this comprehensive resource for families. The information
provided in this book is testimony to the talent, abiding
intellectual curiosity, and dedication to compassionate care and
sheer persistence of each of the professionals who have contributed
chapters. Their common goal was clear and selfless-to uncover sound
medical and scientific data that could provide much needed answers
to the baffling complexities of Tourette syndrome. A mere two
decades ago, it was clear to all in the field that the prospect of
obtaining sufficient funding to explore more deeply the intriguing
preliminary findings uncovered about the disorder was all but
non-existent. Simply put-other research funding priorities
prevailed at the time. And so we can appreciate that the decision
by each of them to dedicate their professional efforts to the study
of Tourette syndrome is especially laudable. And for this we all
owe the contributing authors a profound debt of gratitude." -Sue
