This invaluable guide for lay readers -- parents, educators, and caregivers -- describes the five developmental disorders that fall under the ASD umbrella, spells out the distinctions among them, demystifies the technical jargon, and provides an overview of treatment." "Written by an experienced psychologist and behavior consultant, Demystifying Autism Spectrum Disorders is an excellent tool for parents who don't fully understand their child's diagnosis or wonder whether there is another ASD diagnosis that's more appropriate for their child. It's also useful to parents who suspect their child has an ASD but doesn't yet have a diagnosis." "With Demystifying Autism Spectrum Disorders, parents will have the confidence to participate in their child's diagnostic process and thus be better prepared to understand and play a critical role in their child's treatment.
