Autism Decoded: The Cracks In The Code

Autism Decoded ~ The Cracks in the Code by Stella Waterhouse takes a light and somewhat controversial approach to this weighty and complex subject, illustrated by personal accounts, film and literature. Along the way it takes a look at the lives of some people who, while they may not have autism, bring new - and often surprising - insights to the search! Waterhouse offers a picture of autism as seen through the eyes of some of the great educators, physicians, psychologists and researchers and, most importantly, through the accounts of people with autism themselves.Seeing ASD from this wide variety of perspectives will give the reader a real insight into the world of autism, both throughout history and as it is today. That provides a solid foundation for what will follow in the rest of the series, as Waterhouse clarifies both the criteria and the causes; offering views that will challenge the reader to reassess their thinking and join the debate."An eminently readable book and sometimes difficult to put down, it portrays those with ASD in an understanding and compassionate light. It will add a great deal to these complex and very often misunderstood syndromes." ~ Elizabeth Rowse, M.R.C.P (Retired), Salcombe, Devon, UK
