Children with Autism

This comprehensive guide to understanding autism spectrum disorders offers parents and educators a thoroughly researched exploration of neurodiversity in children. The completely revised edition incorporates the latest developments in autism research, with every chapter rewritten and expanded to reflect current understanding of this complex condition. The book's strength lies in its multifaceted approach, acknowledging that autism's complexity requires considering many types of information when developing therapeutic and educational strategies.

What sets this resource apart is its practical wisdom for supporting children's development while embracing neurodiversity as a different way of being. The new final chapter, "Putting the Pieces Together," demonstrates the authors' conviction that effective support comes from integrating various perspectives rather than relying on a single methodology. Parents seeking to understand their child's unique way of experiencing the world will find this an invaluable roadmap for navigating the challenges and celebrating the strengths that come with autism spectrum conditions.
