This title explores Huntington's disease, an incurable and fatal degenerative condition that robs people of normal brain function when they should be in the prime of life. Aimed at students in Grades 8+, this work describes the condition and the genetic causes behind it, follows researchers on their path to scientific discovery, identifies people with the condition who have spoken up for the good of others, and tracks the latest treatments and research aimed at helping those living with the disease.
