Tony Attwood's guide will assist parents and professionals with the identification, treatment, and care of both children and adults with Asperger's Syndrome. The book provides both a description and an analysis of the unusual characteristics of Asperger’s and offers strategies for dealing with problematic traits. Beginning with a chapter on diagnosis (an assessment is provided), Dr. Attwood covers issues such as language, social behavior, and motor clumsiness. The book also includes a helpful Frequently Asked Questions section and multiple case studies from the author's experience as a Clinical Psychologist, with numerous quotations from people with Asperger's Syndrome.
