Autism
and Asperger's Syndrome
This
page provides links to articles and resources on autism and Asperger's
syndrome. Understanding of the autistic spectrum is still evolving
through research and debate, and many previously held stereotypes
are being debunked. I would encourage those who want to develop
a greater understanding of autism and Asperger's to read not
only articles written by medical professionals and researchers, which
provide an external, often clinical view, but also material
written by those on the spectrum.
