Packer’s home page is an interesting, nicely written and well-designed web site which includes extensive topical glossaries (e.g., neur/psych, edu/advoc), and separate sections on common TS-related issues (e.g., obsessive-compulsive, attention-deficit, mood disorders, “rage attacks,” behavior problems, school daze?, and more).
