An important component of Division TEACCH's mandate from the
Department of Psychiatry of the University of North Carolina School
of Medicine and the North Carolina State Legislature is to conduct
research aimed toward improving the understanding of developmental
disabilities such as autism and to train the professionals who will
be needed to work with this challenging population. An important
mechanism to help meet these goals is our annual conference on
topics of special importance for the understanding and treatment of
autism and related disorders. As with the preceding books in this
series entitled Current Issues in Autism, this most recent volume
is based on one of these conferences. The books are not, however,
simply published proceedings of conference papers. Instead, cer
tain conference participants were asked to develop chapters around
their pres entations, and other national and intemational experts
whose work is beyond the scope of the conference but related to the
conference theme were asked to contribute manuscripts as weil.
These volumes are intended to provide the most current knowledge
and professional practice available to us at this time."
