'This book covers the spectrum of common behavioral problems seen in PWS in terms and language people without medical training can understand, and it delves deeper into the neuro-behavioral manifestations aimed at medical professionals who will care for patients with PWS. This book is a great reference tool for everyone from families who have just received their diagnosis to caregivers of older children experiencing many of these behaviors to medical professionals who will counsel these patients, parents and caregivers.'
