Practical ways of approaching a variety of problems relating to autism and Asperger syndrome are discussed, notably those associated with;

Outcomes of the various treatments are outlined and a number of informative case studies are incorporated. The book concludes by tackling the crucial need for appropriate educational provision and early help for families.

Industry Reviews

Paricia Howlin's book meets the challenge head-on and succeeds admirably..." (Clinical Child Psychology and Psychiatry, Vol 5. No.1)
