Children with autism : a developmental perspective
Marian Sigman (Author), Lisa Capps (Author)
As they make sense of the features of autism at every level of intellectual functioning across the life span, the authors weave together clinical vignettes, research, methodological considerations, and historical accounts. The result is a compelling, comprehensive view of the disorder, true to human experience and scientific observation alike.
