In 1964, the release of Dr Bernard Rimland's book, Infantile Autism, revolutionized the autism field by providing the autism community with much-needed guidance on how to understand and treat individuals on the spectrum. He single-handedly realigned the field from a psychodynamic, parent-blaming perspective to a scientific, physiological course of action.
This updated 50th anniversary edition presents the original book with contributions from leaders in the autism field, including Drs Martha Herbert and Simon Baron-Cohen, who celebrate Dr Rimland's exceptional work, and place his findings within the context of autism as we understand it today. Bringing Dr Rimland's findings up to date for a new generation of readers, this book will be fascinating reading for parents and those on the autism spectrum as well as professionals working with autism and anyone with an interest in autism and/or psychological theory.
