In Tracing Autism, Des Fitzgerald offers an up-close account of the
search for a neurological explanation of autism. As autism has
gained cultural prominence with more diagnoses and more
controversy, its biological causes remain elusive. Through in-depth
interviews with neuroscientists, psychologists, and psychiatrists,
Fitzgerald examines what it means to do scientific research in the
ambiguous terrain of autism research, a field marked by shifting
horizons of uncertainty and ambivalence. He draws out how autism
scientists talk and feel their way through their research,
demonstrating its profoundly affective character, and expanding our
understanding of what is at stake in the new brain sciences.
