Each chapter begins with 'Study Questions' to focus the reader and put the relevant information into perspective , and concludes with 'Implications for Health Care Professionals' to summarise the key learnings of the chapter. 'Patient Information' sections are also included to give examples of how the topics covered can be presented to patients and families.
