Understanding Asperger Syndrome and High Functioning Autism (The Autism Spectrum Disorders Library)2 reviews
Gary B. Mesibov, Victoria Shea, ...
Springer, 2001
Excerpt of review from Contemporary Psychology
"The recognition that people with Asperger Syndrome differ from each other and have an individual profile of impairments and needs is a relatively recent one in professional circles. Less has been written about psychological assessment and much less has been written about intervention. This book's attention to both will be welcomed by parents and sufferers, as well as professionals." Digby ...

Asperger's: What Does It Mean to Me?29 reviews

Future Horizons, 2000
Excellent!
This book is great. It is written very nicely and in first person, so it makes you feel like it is actually... you. It is a great way for introducing the topic to young people, with or without autism. It can be shared with people who know somebody with autism, a family member of somebody with autism, or even the person themselves. Great book!

Springer, 1998
Parents - Read this first! Easy to read, but very complete.
From a parent's perspective, this is the first book to be read when autism is suspected in your child. Missing are the generalizations and stereotypes, as well as conflicting symptoms, found in many other books. Lots of helpful information to help you understand your child better, how to best help him/her at home and the various treatments/therapies available to your child. If your child ...

The TEACCH Approach to Autism Spectrum Disorders (Issues in Clinical Child Psychology)3 reviews
Gary B. Mesibov, Victoria Shea, ...
Springer, 2004
What a wonderful resource!
I found this book useful on so many different levels. First, as a teacher of students with autism and related conditions, there were so many ideas to try. Second, as a parent of an adolescent on the spectrum, I found the sections on adults very informative. Mesibov is one of those rare professionals that takes into account the perspectives of those on the autism spectrum. This book not only ...

This book reads like a college or medical textbook, but it is the best source I have found for information on autism in people who are not mentally retarded as well. It includes lots of details on typical symptoms in both children and adults and lots of first hand accounts from parents and individuals with autism. I found parts of it extemely helpful and parts way over my head. Worth ...
