The behaviour of people affected by autism is not always easy to understand. This book explains the underlying cause of that behaviour in easy-to-understand language. It also offers useful tips on how to deal with this behaviour. The black & white illustrations clarify the journey taken by information as it passes through the brain, and the eight disturbances that can impair information processing in people with autism. This book provides not only an insight into the underlying cause of autistic behaviour, but also offers an overall approach.The strength of this book lies in the collaboration between two experts on autism. The practical knowledge of the founder of The Essential 5 methodology, Colette de Bruin, and the scientific knowledge of neurobiological behavioural scientist Dr Fabiënne Naber.
