Guest guest Posted May 2, 2003 Report Share Posted May 2, 2003 tell me how do you like them when you read them. Have you notice that lots of people here like books? > I think there's actually research out there that looks into that. I do know that while autism does not discriminate by colour, race, or creed, it does tend to appear more often in families with higher education or the intellegence required to pursue higher education. <shrug> Jacquie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted May 3, 2003 Report Share Posted May 3, 2003 > > ok, i gotta ask ... who is Tony Attwood? > Hey, isn't anyone gonna answer 's question. I mean I am two days late here! (maybe I deleted the answer?) Tony Attwood is probably the best know Asperger Syndrome expert. He has written a book called Asperger Syndrome: A Guide for Parents and Professionals, and has written a number of articles on it. I gather he is a good speaker and he does a fair amount of lecturing. Salli Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 3, 2003 Report Share Posted May 3, 2003 who is Tony Attwood?>>> Glad asked because I didn't know who he is either. Are his books a good read? Like I need more books, I have 2 king books, 1 Grisham book and 1 Cornwell book sitting on my desk just waiting to be read. I have 1 SK book going now plus a Stanley Greenspan book and a few magazines but reading is good for the soul right? I hope to get to the library today to get a few more books on Autism too.

Or should I > say dark? It's a very marketable skill NOT. I'm on page 298. (of course, I got it more than a week before you did and neglected it during the first hundred pages, reading only before bed) It really has got me. At one point today I gasped, smacked my hand to my chest while my eyes filled with tears...dh remarked, " am I going to have to take that away from you? " At this point, I still don't know if he's going to take the treatment or not. There have been a lot of arguments for and against put forth -- among the 'a team', NOT from Mr Crenshaw -- but I DON'T want him to!!!!! Who knows, though -- maybe I'll change my mind. AFter all, there are still 42 pages to go... and a lot can get said in 42 pages, especially by Lou. Jacquie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
