I really enjoy the knowledge that this book has to offer to me as a parent. It teaches me how children were diagnosed way back from different decades to now. It's a good book especially for parents who want to better understand their child with this illness. I learn A lot from it and I never want to put it down. It is a must read book. It was recommended to me from my own children's doctor.
