"Autism is the first book on the condition that seeks to combine
medical, historical and cultural approaches to an understanding of
the condition. Its purpose is to present a rounded portrayal of the
ways in which autism is currently represented in the world, It
focuses on three broad areas: the facts of scientific research,
including new ideas surrounding research into genetics and
neuroscience, as well as the details of diagnosis and therapy; the
history of the condition as it developed through psychiatric
approaches to the rise of parent associations, neurodiversity and
autism advocacy; and the fictional and media narratives through
which it is increasingly expressed in the contemporary moment.
Accessible and written in clear English, Autism is designed for
student audiences in English, Disability Studies, Cultural Studies,
History, Sociology, and Medicine and Health, as well as medical
practitioners and the general reader. Autism is a condition
surrounded by misunderstanding and often defined by contestation
and argument. The purpose of this book is to bring clarity to the
subject of autism across the full range of its manifestations"--
