Reviews

"For anyone close to an autistic person who wants to learn about the problem, this is almost certainly the best available manual... Schreibman describes pretty much every current approach to autism, and examines how well supported by evidence each proposed theory is, and how well each therapy works. There is no better straightforward source of answers than this book." - Ian Hacking, London Review of Books"
