The Psychiatry of Intellectual Disability - Softcover

"'People with intellectual disability (learning disability) can experience a wide range of psychiatric behavioural genetic and physical conditions. A psychiatrist working with this group of people needs to have a broad understanding of these conditions which are often beyond the range encountered when working with the general population. Some disorders occur more frequently in people with intellectual disability whereas the clinical presentations of other disorders can be modified by the presence of significant intellectual disability itself or be affected by communication problems.' Ashok Roy, Meera Roy and David Clarke"
