June 2003 | 100 pages | SAGE Publications Ltd
Sometimes we learn something new

through personal experience something which up until now, has not been the subject of research.

This book provides a mother's original process of thinking through detail.

We all want an in-depth knowledge of autism and Hilde justifies her approach: by thinking through details I have always been able to explain my sons autism.

I have never heard anyone explain the world and life from the point of view of a person with autism as clearly as Hilde.

Marie Bristol, Head of American Autism Research
