AUTISM
An Introduction to Psychological Theory

Francesca Happe
Harvard University Press, 1994

LEARNING OBJECTIVES:
Readers of this book should understand current research and theory about autism.

This concise, readable introduction gives a balanced overview of autism. The author synthesizes and critically assesses work in the area. The book is not a practical guide to the care and education of people with autism, but provides psychologists, parents, and teachers with a broad perspective and entry points to parts of the literature they may wish to pursue. Contents include history, biology, behavior, cognition, special talents, Asperger's syndrome, differentiating autism, and expectations for the future.

Francesca Happe is a research scientist at the Cognitive Development Unit of the Medical Research Council in London.
