World renowned Down syndrome expert Siegfried Pueschel brings us this practical volume on adults with Down syndrome. His previous books for parents of children with Down syndrome and adolescents with Down syndrome have been bestsellers. Now, with people with Down syndrome living longer than ever before, this edited text gathers many highly respected experts - including individuals with Down syndrome themselves - to discuss the experiences and needs of adults with Down syndrome. This accessible book will help readers promote the health and well being of individuals with Down syndrome. The book contains a good mixture of clinical, social, legal, and personal information. After a review of the medical and psychiatric conditions that occur in people with Down syndrome, the book discusses support apparatuses (positive behavior support, sexual supports, person-centered planning), living in the community, work, recreation, guardianship, and advocacy. Finally, sixteen stories from adults with Down syndrome are included to give a human face to the discussion. The narrators tell of their life experiences in their own words.
