The Australian Autism Handbook

Inclusive, comprehensive and compassionate, The Australian Autism Handbook offers support and guidance to families on their journey, from early signs and symptoms of ASD to diagnosis, intervention programs, schooling, issues such as eating, sleeping and toilet training, and navigating the medical maze. In addition, it's integrated the many changes arising since its last publication, including changes in the language of autism, diagnoses, society, culture and agency. Benison O'Reilly and Seana Smith are professional writers who both have children with autism, and their first-hand experience and research provides an indispensable one-stop manual for all Australian and New Zealand parents on raising a child on the autism spectrum.
