9781138911901 English 1138911909 Developmental Disorders of the Brain provides a comprehensive overview of the latest clinical and behavioral findings of disorders involving the frontostriatal (basal ganglia) and frontocerebellar systems. Covering a broad range of conditions including Tourette's syndrome, Schizophrenia, Williams syndrome, and Fragile X syndrome, the book is vital to the understanding, diagnosis, and management of developmental disorders of the brain. The book features an in-depth discussion of the relevant anatomy, physiology and pathology, alongside some of the major functions mediated by affected or relevant structures. Accounts of the latest recording, brain imaging and stimulating techniques related to these kinds of disorders are also examined in this essential volume. Featuring contributions from leading researchers, this text will be indispensable for clinicians, researchers, parents, and those who are themselves affected by developmental disorders., Developmental Disorders of the Brain: Brain and Behaviour addresses disabilities that occur or have their roots in the early, developmental phase of life which are of utmost concern to parents, siblings, carers and teachers. This text describes the latest clinical and behavioral findings of disorders which largely or entirely involve the frontostriatal (basal ganglia) system including Tourette's, Obsessive-Compulsive and Attention-Deficit-Hyperactivity disorders, Schizophrenia, Autism, gambling and addiction, depression, and Conduct, Developmental Motor Co-ordination, and language disorders. Examples of disorders involving the frontocerebellar are also described such as Asperger's disorder, Williams, Fragile X, and Cerebellar Cognitive Affective syndromes, and Friedreich Ataxia. This book also discusses the relevant anatomy, physiology and pathology, and some of the major functions mediated by affected or relevant structures, together with accounts of the latest recording, brain imaging and stimulating techniques related to these kinds of disorders. Covering both frontostriatal and frontocerebellar, systems which control and direct normal behavior, and which can fail with often distressing consequences during development, as well as addressing behavioural, clinical, pathophysiological and technical aspects, this text is vital to understanding, diagnosis and management of developmental disorders of the brain. This text will be of great interest to clinicians, researchers, teachers and parents.
