Autism Speaks

Autism is a subject that has always fascinated and intrigued me; a closed and impenetrable universe that, after years of research, traditional and modern approaches are allowing us to understand and treat therapeutically. I tried to understand what is hidden in the mysterious and particular world of the autistic child. I wanted, therefore, to deepen understanding of this particular condition.

In this audiobook, you will find the definitive knowledge you need to broaden your horizons on autism spectrum disorders and learn of the available treatment options that are accessible today.

I have also provided strategies for interacting with adults and children on all levels of the autism spectrum, providing you the key pieces of information you need to make your interactions as comfortable and soothing as possible.
