Playing the dating game is often tricky: all the more so for individuals with Asperger's Syndrome. How do AS adolescents and their families cope with sexual feelings and behaviour? What help can be given if a man with AS oversteps the mark in expressing his sexuality? How do people with AS deal with intimacy and communication in sexual relationships? In this comprehensive and unique guide, Isabelle Henault delivers practical information and advice on issues ranging from puberty and sexual development, gender identity disorders, couples' therapy to guidelines for sex education programs and maintaining sexual boundaries. This book will prove indispensable to parents, teachers, counsellors and individuals with AS themselves.

Asperger's Understood, Applied for Adolescents,
By Selima Winchester "DAR patriot" (San Francisco, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Asperger's Syndrome And Sexuality: From Adolescence Through Adulthood (Paperback)
This is a great Asperger's book for counselors, family and especially teenagers. It covers the whole spectrum of symptoms and treatment and focuses on the sexual questions that a teenager or young adult might not feel free to discuss. It is respectful of their natural sexuality and the problems that may arise out of their inability to find release for their sexual desires. It is a reassuring and positive book about life's full potential for those suffering from this often undiagnosed developmental disorder. A great addition to the wide spectrum of books on Aspergers.

This review is from: Asperger's Syndrome And Sexuality: From Adolescence Through Adulthood (Paperback)
This is a very comprehensive workbook that could be a lot of fun for teens but ho-hum for adults unless they've had an extremely sheltered sexual life. It is quite explicit and far more practical than what I ever read as a teenager myself.

Good Resource for Professionals and Parents of those with Asperger's Disorder,

This review is from: Asperger's Syndrome And Sexuality: From Adolescence Through Adulthood (Paperback)
I work with individuals who have AS and found this to be a relevant and informative book. I think that this book is also a good resource for family members as well, because it is easy to read and it can help give them an understanding of sexual problems that may take place. It is well-written and interesting, and I have used it to help my practice and the clients that I serve.For information about Asperger's Disorder and therapy, feel free to visit my blog at [...]
