This book covers a wide range of medical, social and educational issues concerning people with Down's syndrome throughout the age range, including recent medical advances and information about services. Whilst mainly about services in the USA, many of the ideas are applicable elsewhere. There are some nice commentaries by young people with Down's syndrome giving their viewpoint.

A useful resource, giving an overview of Down's syndrome likely to be of particular value for those caring for people with Down's syndrome within the community.
