Written for practitioners working in the field of autism and related disorders (including Asperger's syndrome), this handbook offers an overview of understandings of these disorders from a behavioural, biological and psychological perspective.

This text is meant as a companion for students in teacher-training, newly-qualified teachers, or for anyone teaching children with autistic spectrum disorders for the first time in a mainstream setting. No prior knowledge of autistic spectrum disorders is necessary.
