WIN A Copy Of The Autistic Brain

April 8, 2014

The Autistic Brain

 

 In The Autistic Brain Temple Grandin offers her own experience as an autistic person alongside remarkable new discoveries about the autistic brain, as well as genetic research. She also highlights long-ignored sensory problems as well as the need to treat autism symptom by symptom, rather than with an umbrella diagnosis. Most exciting of all, she argues that raising and educating children on the autistic spectrum needs to be less about focusing on their weaknesses, and more about fostering their unique contributions.

 

For your chance to win a copy of The Autistic Brain simply answer this question: What year did the word ‘autism’ enter the psychiatric lexicon?
