Great book - lousy price 
2002-02-24
Wish I had seen this book when our daughter was born. This covers every angle of Down Syndrome and has entries at every level from the anecdote to the academic paper. A wealth of bibliographic info for more research. What I liked most was the overwhelmingly positive tone of all the information.
... this is a great book that Ihighly recommend.

I haven't read the book yet, but please tell the editor that DS is *NOT* a disease! It is a disorder. Please correct this mistake in her paragraph! Thank you.
