Sicile-Kira draws on 20 years' experience as both a professional and a parent in this single-volume guide to Autistic Spectrum Disorders (ASD), first published in Britain in 2003. She covers many topics (e.g., education, diagnosis, treatments, family life, resources, and life for adults with autism) but does not usually provide enough detail to be truly informative, even in an introductory manner. In part, the problem lies in her using quotes to explain ASD; her selections primarily come from five people her own son and authors Temple Grandin, Liane Willey, Donna Williams, and Tito Mukhopadhyay not a sufficient cross section. Sicile-Kira does, however, provide a few strong chapters, such as education especially when discussing getting through an Individualized Education Plan (IEP) meeting and services for adults with ASD. For a better single volume on ASD, see Mitzi Waltz's Autistic Spectrum Disorders. An optional purchase for public libraries. Corey Seeman, Univ. of Toledo Libs., OH
