My books, except for a special one (Letters Home) , have all been written to help people. My first book, Raising a Handicapped Child, was written because I needed a book for the parents of the children I was caring for as director of a Center for children with disabilities. It has been in publication since 1986 in five different editions. The last edition was published by Oxford University Press in 1999. They also published Raising a Child with a Neuromuscular Disorder in 2000 and it is still purchased by parents all over the world. 101 Ways To The Best Medical Care has multiple resources and much practical information. (Infinity Publishers- 2006. ) Jessica Kingsley Publishers in the U.S. and U.K. published  Grandparenting a Child with Special Needs in 2006.  It   has been well received and still sells internationally. My  latest two books are Your Personal Parenting Guide and Prescription (Rx) for Parenting. These were published in 2015 by Atlantic Publishing Group. They are very practical and easy to read. They are based on the sheets I gave to  parents to take home when I was practicing  general pediatrics. I have a Web site at www.drthompsonsbooks.com and a Blog at www.findinggoodmedicalcare.com, plus a  parenting Blog at: www.rxforparentingtoday.com.
