The Complexity of Autism Spectrum Disorders

Editat de Michael Wolff, Bradley Bridges, Thomas Denczek
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 4 sep 2018
Since its first identification, Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) has presented myriad challenges of diagnosis and classification. Our understanding has evolved from a cluster of diagnostic categories (Asperger’s, Autism, and Pervasive Development Disorder) to the current continuum of Autism Spectrum Disorder. Meanwhile, we have progressed from debating the validity of the diagnosis, to considering it a modern epidemic. This evolution has drawn attention across a variety of fields, including the neurosciences, education, forensics, and behavioral health. While new research accumulates, there remains a lack of conceptual and practical clarity about what ASD is, how specific diagnoses might be delineated, and what we can do to understand and manage the complexity of individuals on the Spectrum. In understanding ASD, one size does not fit all—families, schools, and clinicians all need a multi-faceted engagement with the specifics they encounter. This text opens a critical dialogue through which students, researchers, and clinicians can challenge their ideas about what it means to work with the unique presentations of individuals on the Spectrum. It provides education, clinical expertise, and personalization to the lives influenced by the ever-changing dynamics of Autism Spectrum Disorder.

Recenzii

"The increasing prevalence of autism spectrum disorders mandates practitioners have the most current information about diagnosis, intervention, and accommodations. This comprehensive text accomplished this goal and is likely to be useful for both new and experienced clinicians, educators, and researchers." - Andrew S. Davis, Ball State University, USA
"For those seeking to acquaint themselves with a comprehensive summary of the myriad of factors involved in working with individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder, The Complexity of Autism Spectrum Disorders is an excellent starting point. It provides a clear and easy to understand introduction for any professional desirous of starting a career working with the many presentations of this increasingly prevalent disorder." Ted Wasserman, Private Practice, Boca Raton, USA
"The Complexity of Autism Spectrum Disorders is a comprehensive handbook that outlines our current understanding of autism spectrum disorder (ASD)... This book stands out in its unique ability to synthesize the expansive literature on ASD spanning a number of specific topics and fields. This text serves as an excellent next step for clinicians and researchers hoping to understand ASD at a deeper and more diverse level making clear connections between what we know about the individuals we serve and how they perceive the services that we provide." - Shannon L. O'Connor, Journal of Pediatric Neuropsychology
