Exceptional
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
This unpretentious work provides a wealth of information useful in the differential diagnosis and treatment of children with autistic spectrum disorders. One of it's strengths lies in the author's simple description of the range of behaviors and behavioral patterns associated with autism in childhood, adolescence, and adulthood. While some parents may find sections of this book too "clinical," mental health practitioners who work with children will find this book to be a valuable addition to their library.
Excellent book

This is an excellent & up-to-date, no-nonsense book for parents of kids on the spectrum. I have found it to be easy to read,informative and helpful. I bought it because it was recommended by a doctor that knew I was confused by my son's behavior. It has helped me probably more than the other books I have on the subject.
