Parents of a child with an autism spectrum disorder (ASD) need clear, comprehensive information to decipher the complex, behaviour-based diagnostic evaluations and definitions. This guide for lay readers clarifies the process of diagnosis for parents who don't fully understand it or wonder whether there is another ASD diagnosis that's more appropriate for their child. The book is also an excellent tool for families who suspect their child has an ASD but doesn't yet have a diagnosis. With more children diagnosed with ASDs than ever before, parents need reliable advice and information to make sense of their child's diagnosis. This invaluable guide is their answer. It can help families, as well as educators and caregivers, unlock many of the mysteries and nuances behind the ever-evolving diagnostic process.
