{"product_id":"tics-and-tourette-syndrome-isbn-9781909962415","title":"Tics and Tourette Syndrome","description":"\u003cp\u003eUnlike much of the literature on Tourette syndrome disorders, this book moves away from focusing on the tics and acknowledges that sometimes it is the disorder, such as ADHD, DCD, and OCD, that is the most pressing problem. Roger Freeman, considered a world expert in developmental neurology, shares his vast experience on tic disorders in an informal but highly informative style. He discusses recent advances in the identification and management of tic disorders that many clinicians may be unfamiliar with. Multiple illustrative case histories address many of the mistaken assumptions about tics that are made in everyday clinical practice. Extensive reference lists provide a rich resource for the both the clinician and the researcher. Paediatricians working in neurodisability and child development, child and adolescent psychiatrists and psychologist, neurologists and other health professionals who manage patients with tic disorders will find this book an excellent resource.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eContents\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAUTHOR’S APPOINTMENTS\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eACKNOWLEDGMENTS\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCONFLICT OF INTEREST DECLARATION\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFOREWORD\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eLIST OF ABBREVIATIONS\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1 INTRODUCTION\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2 DIAGNOSIS AND DEFINITIONS\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3 PRESENTATION TO CLINICIANS\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4 PREVALENCE AND EPIDEMIOLOGY\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5 ETIOLOGY\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6 CLINICAL COURSE AND PROGNOSIS\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7 PHENOMENOLOGY AND SOCIAL CONSEQUENCES\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e8 THE LIVED EXPERIENCE\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e9 FUNCTIONAL (‘CONVERSION DISORDER’ OR ‘PSYCHOGENIC’) TICS\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e10 COMORBID DISORDERS AND SYMPTOMATOLOGY\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e11 STEREOTYPIC MOVEMENT DISORDER\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e12 SYMPTOMS AND PATTERNS\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e13 TICS IN OTHER MEDICAL CONDITIONS\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e14 NEUROPSYCHOLOGY\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e15 INTERVENTIONS AND TREATMENT\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e16 WORKING WITH SCHOOLS\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e17 WORKING WITH FAMILIES\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e18 PEER RELATIONSHIPS AND TEASING\/BULLYING\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e19 CONTROVERSIES\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e20 REFRACTORY CASES\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e21 SERVICE PROVISION: A FEW CONSIDERATIONS\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e22 SUPPORT GROUPS\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e23 TIC DISORDERS AND THE LAW\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e24 TOURETTE SYNDROME, EMPLOYMENT AND INSURANCE\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e25 AND NOW FOR SOMETHING COMPLETELY DIFFERENT\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e26 SOME PROBLEMS TICS CAN CAUSE FOR OTHERS\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e27 CODA\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eREFERENCES\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAPPENDIX 1.
