One out of every 68 persons is diagnosed with autism spectrum
disorder (ASD). In addition, about 1 percent of the world
population is afflicted with this condition. There is a vast amount
of conjecture surrounding the topic of autism, so it is crucial to
make sure relevant and appropriate information is accessible to
those living on the spectrum as well as to those closest to them.
In Autism: The Ultimate Teen Guide, Francis Tabone provides a
comprehensive look at autism spectrum disorder. Designed to help
teens and their families gain a social, medical, and historical
understanding of ASD, this book addresses the factors that have
influenced the treatment of this condition. Featuring stories and
quotes from teens and young adults who live with ASD, this book
helps readers gain insight into the ASD brain and how it affects
individuals. Topics covered in this book include *understanding
behavioral elements *the origins and history of the term "Autism"
*a neurological look at the various disorders on the spectrum
*various types of treatment *how to interact with a person on the
spectrum *accomplished people living with a disorder on the
spectrum Firmly grounding this subject in facts while providing
advice for those affected by ASD-both directly and indirectly-this
book will be of interest to young adults of autism as well as to
their family members and friends. As a result, readers will better
understand how to interact and work with those with ASD as well as
gain a broader acceptance of those who may be different. With
helpful advice and a list of resources, Autism: The Ultimate Teen
