The Genetic Connection is the most complete collection of breed-specific diagnosis and treatment options available. Written for the practicing veterinarian (yet easily understood by not-vets), The Genetic Connection gives you the information you need to assess and identify the treatment needs of purebred dogs and to help pet owners make informed decisions about dog selection or breeding. It covers basic breed summaries, reviews medical & behavioral problems, and guides the reader through diagnostic tests, treatments, and organizations involved with genetic screening.

	Handbook of Neurodevelopmental and Genetic Disorders in Children
	By: Sam Goldstein, Cecil R. Reynolds ISBN: 1572304480 Publisher: The Guilford Press Release Date: 02 June, 1999 Bioscience book rank: 872219	This book was very useful. It is a simple handbook and the last person's review was very precise. Good handbook for starting research. The Handbook of Neurodevelopmental and Genetic Disorders in Children, edited by Sam Goldstein Ph.D. and Cecil Reynolds Ph.D. is a well written, in depth discussion of the impact of genetics on the neurodevelopment of children. <p>The book is divided into three parts. The first addresses the role of neuropsychology in the assessment and treatment of children with neurodevelopmental and genetic disorders. The second part concerns five disorders with genetic etiologies that primarily affect learning and behavior: learning disabilities, ADHD, Tourette syndrome, anxiety disorders and autism. The final part deals with 14 less common disorders which have genetic etiologies and physical/medical manifestations, as well as effects on learning and behavior: Turner Syndrome, Fragile X Syndrome, Mucopolysaccharidoses, Noonan Syndrome, Neurofibromatosis, Sickle Cell Disease, Down Syndrome, Klinefelter Syndrome, Phenylketonuria, Rett Syndrome, Lesch-Nyhan Syndrome, Seizure Disorders, Prader-Willi Syndrome and Williams Syndrome. Each of the chapters on specific disorders discusses the current understanding of the genetic etiology of the disorders, behavioral and developmental manifestations, and guides to assessment. <p>The book will serve the purposes of many people. Those wanting to do research on a disease can find a quick history on the research and the issues which remain outstanding. Those interested in clinical issues can find clear descriptions, diagnostic considerations and treatment recommendations. All will benefit by learning about the genetic bases, incidence and comorbidity of the various diseases.
