Description

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.


The book provides a description and analysis of the unusual characteristics of the syndrome and practical strategies to reduce those that are most conspicuous or debilitating. Beginning with a chapter on diagnosis, including an assessment test, the text covers all aspects of the syndrome from language to social behaviour to motor clumsiness, concluding with a chapter on the questions most frequently asked by those who come into contact with individuals with the syndrome.
