The Biology of the Autistic Syndromes (Clinics in Developmental Medicine (Mac Keith Press)) Book

Autism is a syndrome of different diseases. In this completely reworked and updated third edition, two world authorities address the difficulties this presents for the clinician with diagnostic aids and clear guidelines for medical evaluation. Epidemiology, neuropsychological studies and behavior complexes are reviewed in detail, as is what is known about the molecular biology and genetics of autism. Epilepsy and electrophysiological studies are covered, as well as biochemistry, endocrinology, immunology, brain imaging, neuropathology and the available medical therapies. The book concludes with an essential integration of current knowledge from diverse fields.Read More
