My son starting displaying tics, so I went to the library insearch of information. This book looked good, so I took ithome and read it. I found it very readable and informative.I believe the author is not a medical expert, which normallywould make me skeptical of the information, but in this casethe book seems very well researched and reasonable. I like it.The text includes frequent quotes from people with TS, theirparents, and others, which I found helpful and reassuring.I haven't read enough TS books to really say how thisone compares to others, but I don't think anyone who buysthis book will be disappointed.FYI, after reading this book, I was convinced my son didin fact have Tourettes, so I took him to a neurologist, andit was confirmed. I felt the book had prepared me well foreverything the neurologist told me.
