Customer Review: Very appreciative parents thank the authors (5 Stars)

The CSIT (Cognitive Social Integration Theory) that is the cornerstone of Alan Sohn and Cathy Grayson's approach is a brilliant one. It draws on the strength of the Asperger child's intelligence, and gives the parent/teacher real tools to both understand and work with the Asperger child. As parents of a very bright young boy, we've particularly incorporated the all-important concept of flexibility, and we can see real results. I highly recommend this book to everyone and have no doubt that it will become one of the most important and influential books written on Asperger's Syndrome. Amazon.com Reviewer

Customer Review: A great read! (4 Stars)

Bones Fatzinger is an ex-police officer kicked off the force for being too lenient with criminals. Left to live on a tight budget, he stays in the Broad Street Hotel, where he befriends the owner's granddaughter, 12-year-old Verity Buscador. ... The story is narrated from the perspective of Bones, in a light-hearted and easy-to-read manner. Verity has Asperger's Syndrome, so interspersed throughout the text are subtle explanations of aspects of the condition, such as ritualistic behaviour and an inability to look people directly in the eyes. Each reference is explained with clarity, offering readers an extra bit of knowledge and, ... Amazon.com Reviewer

Customer Review: Very good reference on the topic. (4 Stars)

I agree with both reviewers already listed. This book is NOT for the casual reader and most family/ friends will find it difficult, distracting and frustrating.

However this is the best I've seen for someone alreadh familiar with the disorder who wants a good review of the state of the art in 1999-2000. For the serious student however, one would want to augment the text with more up to date journal materials as new information is available. It would be great to see a new addition of this ...
