Price: Rs. 54. Why does Chris do that? Tony Attwood 'One of the most useful books about autism I've ever read. Tania Chambers, carer of a young adult with Asperger syndrome. Tony Attwood is a world authority on Asperger syndrome. This useful and readable book examines the problems of people with high functioning autism and Asperger syndrome. Tony offers a better understanding of the unique difficulties associated with autism and an explanation of how these cause unusual behaviour, as well as helpful advice on the management of unusual behaviour of children and adults with autism and Asperger syndrome. This is a really practical book, brim full of useful advice. This book should provide a better undestanding of the unique disabilities associated with autism and an explanation of how they cause such unusual behaviour. Autism can produce times of exasperation but it can also produce times of achievement. It should not be considered a tragedy but a challenge. Recently so much has been discovered about the nature of autism that we are becoming more able to provide an explanation of why such unusual behaviour occurs and, more importantly, ways to reduce its consequences on the person's behaviour, learning and social life.
