Experts from a wide range of professional backgrounds have been brought together to produce this book, which touches on probably every aspect of life relevant to the adolescent or young adult with Down's syndrome. It covers biomedical, psychological, social, sexual, educational, recreational and legal concerns. Medical issues are not covered extensively, and professionals are likely to need to refer elsewhere for more detailed information, but the book does offer a useful perspective on those issues particularly pertinent for teenagers.
