Book Description

May 1, 1998
Approaching the condition of autism from many perspectives, the authors make a comprehensive study of the disorder, balancing theory with practice, and presenting a clear picture of what it means to be autistic, and what can be done to improve the capabilities of the autistic child. They consider the historical descriptions, explanations and recognition of the condition; the symptoms and causes and examine methods of communicating with autistic children and helping them to communicate as fully as possible.

2.0 out of 5 stars Unreliable, November 11, 1997
By A Customer
Disappointingly and inexplicably biased towards methods of understanding and treatment for autism such as psychoanalysis which have been repeatedly shown to be ineffective at best. Definitely not recommended.
