This volume covers several perspectives on autism which bring
together the most recent scientific views of the nature of this
disorder. A number of themes organize major developments and
emerging areas in autism: Cognitive and neural systems development:
how autism arises in the behavior and thought of very young
children. Discovering brain mechanisms underlying social and
cognitive deficits in autism: how we can explain "social
awkwardness" and poor language comprehension in terms of
malfunctions of brain mechanisms, revealed by fMRI studies of
people with autism. Integrating information about genes, brain, and
biological mechanisms with behavioral evidence. Linking the science
of autism with lives lived: how the new information about autism
impacts people with autism and real-world considerations.
