Reviews

“A variety of research methodologies are represented, from clinical experiments to case study and more qualitative approaches. The writing is clear and scholarly … . the editors arranged the chapters into 20 sections, each with six to a dozen articles each. … it does fill a useful gap by providing in-depth articles on scientific and research aspects of ASD, which are beyond the scope of other ASD references.” (Lesley S. J. Farmer, Reference Reviews, Vol. 29 (3), 2015)“It is the excellent source of an accessible, evidence-based, and clinically thorough account of the ASD field and contemporary issues from the worldwide professional. … This volume is an indispensable reading for a range of professionals: psychiatric social workers, psychologists, clinicians scientists and of course for parents and caregivers.” (Kamlesh Kumar Sahu and Soma Sahu, Journal ofDisability Studies, Vol. 1 (2), 2015)
