By Tony Attwood - Dr Tony Attwood’s books are a must for anyone who has an interest in understanding Aspergers Syndrome. Over 500,000 copies sold around the world and is my personal favourite. Easy to read, excellent explanations of AS.

Fantastic book for Teachers and all adults to really understand how it is for a child with an ASD.

For Wendy Lawson the world is indeed a strange place. It is noisy, confusing and full of contradictions. And the people in it are distant and make no sense: why do they laugh and cry? Why don’t they say what they mean?

To many of the people who live or work with an individual with an autism spectrum disorder (ASD), the processes by which those with autism make sense of the world around them may seem mysterious. In this book Wendy Lawson demonstrates these processes using comparisons from the non-ASD world to help professionals, families and carers to relate to and communicate with people with ASD better.
