Summary
The Explaining... series looks at a range of conditions, illnesses, and disabilities that affect children and adults all over the world. The books explain why they occur, how they are diagnosed, how they affect people, and how they can be treated. Case studies illustrate how it feels to have an illness or disability and how children and adults manage their conditions and live full and happy lives. This book will help you to understand what autism is and how it affects people. The world can be a confusing place for people with autism.
