This book is incredeble.
In every page, I can find situation that have an echo for adult asperger.
For adult, diagnostic is more difucult to obtain, because the adults has a lot of bypass strategic of asperger limitation. With this book, the adult can undestand him-self and confirm the diagnostic.
I have read other book, but this one is realy the best.

| If you or someone close to you has symptoms suggesting Asperger's Syndrome, this is the one book that will inform you and help you understand how to create effective motivation and education for a child and to find an appropriate lifestyle and employment for an adult. It was originally recommended by a psychologist working with a family member, and has been useful to everyone who interacts with that family member. |

| I bought this book to learn more about my daughter who has been diagnosed with Asperger's. I must say that this book is about her life. What I have allready learned through the years when coping with her special way of thinking is really explaned in this book. I would advise anyone who comes in contact with a person with Aperger's, whether a child or adult to read and learn. It will help the `Aspie`, for you will be able to communicate on the right level. It prevents misunderstandings in communication and you will have a much better relationship. Be it in family or other relationships such as school or work. |
| The Complete Guide to Asperger's Syndrome by Jessica Kingsley Publishers Great book if you want to understand the problem |
| This was my first book on Aspergers - it was a great read. I understand the Syndrome more now. I with it had more on the Syndrome in toddlers - it seems that research is lacking on Aspergers in toddlers. However, it was a great book and I recommend it to anyone going through Aspergers themselves or with their children. |
