5.0 out of 5 stars Autism : A Holistic Approach

2.0 out of 5 stars Bizarre and mystical, November 25, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Autism : A Holistic Approach (Paperback)

Despite the impression given by the title, this book does not describe a general "holistic" approach, but rather one based on the bizarre and mystical "anthroposophical" theories of Steiner. Although the authors' care for the children they work with is evident, their quasi-religious approach means that the book is only likely to appeal to those already prepared to believe that autism is due to problems in the child's karma and the failure of their soul to "incarnate" properly.
