Learn about Autism

This blog is not designed to give a complete picture of Autism. If you wish to learn more about this rare and fascinating condition, please read these books! They are not only represent the authoritative guide to Autism but a terrific read as well. You will enjoy the 'An Anthropologist from Marsh' even if you have no special interest in the troubles of the mind. The seven paradoxical tales of the most original, warm hearted and entertaining neurologist on the planet. The title is actually a term Temple Grandin used to describe her own state of mind as a high functioning Autistic. Her book 'Thinking in Pictures: Autism' provides a first hand insight into the world of the 'Spectrum'. Uta Frith's 'Explaining the Enigma' is mainly focusing on the Theory of the Mind. Is is clearly and well written without difficult medical jargon by one of the leading research scientist of the Autistic Spectrum Disorder. The book has some very engaging stories and I found it very hard to put down. If you buy these books through these links, in a small way you will contribute to my education.
