Children, Youth and Adults with Asperger Syndrome: Integrating Multiple Perspectives

This book offers a comprehensive overview of clinical, personal and research perspectives on Asperger Syndrome, including contributions from parents and experts in the fields of psychology, social work, psychiatry, genetics, sexology and vocational counselling. It includes first-hand accounts from children, young people and adults with AS, highlighting their difficulties in areas such as social competence and education. The book addresses specialist perspectives on AS, including sexuality and relationships, finding and keeping employment and anxiety and depression very sensitively. The viewpoints of parents and other family members explore ideas of how to parent AS individuals. These varied approaches to living with AS complement the emerging literature on theory, research and practice in this area.
