Based on Nick Dubin's own experience, and drawing on the extensive
knowledge of Dr Tony Attwood and Dr Isabelle Henault, this
important book addresses the issues surrounding the autism
spectrum, sexuality and the law. The complex world of sex and
appropriate sexual behaviour can be extremely challenging for
people with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and, without guidance,
many find themselves in vulnerable situations. This book examines
how the ASD profile typically affects sexuality and how sexual
development differs between the general population and those with
ASD. It explains the legalities of sexual behaviour, how laws
differ from country to country, and the possibility for adjustment
of existing laws as they are applied to the ASD population. With
advice on how to help people with autism spectrum disorder gain a
better understanding of sexuality and a comprehensive list of
resources, the book highlights the need for a more informed
societal approach to the psychosexual development of people with
ASD. A ground-breaking and honest account, this book will be an
invaluable addition to the shelves of parents of children with ASD,
mental health and legal professionals, teachers, carers and other
professionals working with individuals on the spectrum.
