Pyromania, Kleptomania, and Other Impulse-Control Disorders

128 pp. | Enslow | November, 2002 | Library ISBN 0-7660-1899-7 $$20.95
(4) YA Diseases and People series. In the books in this series, chapters written in serviceable prose cover definition, history, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment, and future possibilities for prevention and treatment. Stories of individuals, including public figures, who suffer from the disorders humanize the facts. Grainy black-and-white photos are of dubious relevance. A question-and-answer section and timeline are appended. Bib., glos., ind. [Review covers these Diseases and People titles: Bipolar Disorder, Depression, and Other Mood Disorders; Parkinson's Disease, and Pyromania, Kleptomania, and Other Impulse-Control Disorders.]
