Engaging and Readable
Tough Decisions is an outstanding book made even better in this long awaited second edition. Unlike most collections of case studies, this volume does not simply present a variety of vignettes to be analyzed and evaluated. Instead, the reader is required to actually make tough decisions and then follow up on the consequences. Decisions often lead to further decisions and then still further ...

A godsend for parents of a newly diagnosed child
After hours of internet searching and bookstore browsing with not a whole lot of usable results, finding this book was great. It is clearly written, easy to understand, and covers all of the different causes for seizures, as well as medications and some discussion of the physiology of seizures. I am ordering another copy for my daughter's preschool teachers, who want to be as educated as they ...

Many of these letters have never been published before, and through them we get a much stronger sense of the Jay family than we have had before. Sarah, in particular, emerges page by page as a smart, savvy, capable woman, handling the family finances and ...
