Written by child neurologists, this comprehensive, multi-authored volume on autism systematically discusses the classification, epidemiology and neurobiology of autism. Autism lacks a unique etiology or specific pathology, so the behaviorally defined social deficits, language impairments and repetitive behaviors that define autism are explored from a developmental neurology perspective. The evidence suggesting that autism is a disorder of neuronal development is reviewed by experts on the genetics, neuroanatomy and neuroradiology, neurochemistry, immunology, and neurophysiology of autism. Chapters provide comprehensive reviews of the common neurological problems associated with autism such as epilepsy, sleep disturbances and motor and sensory deficits. Neuropsychological assessment, medical and psychopharmacologic management, educational and behavioral interventions, and outcome are discussed within the clinical content of the practising neurologist. The research agenda needed tounderstand the neurology of autism is emphasized throughout the book and in the conclusion.

"This book offers a neurobiological orientation for a rational understanding of that seriously impairing, deeply fascinating and equally mysterious spectrum of disorder development ... .Very well written, straight to the point, contains a good number of excellent tables and it is exciting to read. it is an outstanding, high quality review of issues relating to autism and I recommmend it wholeheartedly." ( European Journal of Paediatric Neurology , July 2007)
"The book provides a comprehensive compilation of the main issues in autism, including epidemiology, language, and neurobiology ... .Of particular note are the excellent chapters by Rapin on assessment of language and by Acosta and Pearl on genetics." ( Journal of International Neuropsychological Society , May 2007)
"Rapin and Tuchman have produced an exceptional survey from the neuroscience viewpoint of the literature pertaining to children with autistic behavior. It is difficult to imagine a child neurologist or developmental pediatrician who would not want to own this volume-many of them will even consider sending a copy or two to their local child psychiatrist or child development center. Certainly every trainee in neurology, pediatrics, and child psychiatry should read this book. Many child psychologists, social workers, and other persons who interact with behaviorally disturbed children will want to have access to a copy." (Robert J. Baumann, MD, Pediatric Neurology , 36:3 March 2007)
