Tony Attwood here provides a comprehensive guide designed to assist parents and professionals with the identification and treatment of both children and adults with Asperger's syndrome.

An excellent book - helps wade through the maze that is Aspergers. Practical and easy to read - Tony Attwood also has a wealth of other resources available for those of us who need the support.

A good all-in-one book on Asperger's and a must have for parents & teachers of children with Apsperger's Syndrome. Easy to read format and easy to understand- not like a lot of medical books you can actually sit down and read cover to cover. Covers all apects and has a comprehensive reference guide as well as check lists for assessment in the back.
