This book provides parents with a simple and clear understanding of the biomedical treatment approach that Dr. Sears has used successfully with many of his young patients. It lays out a plan for developmental, behavioral, and learning therapies; shows parents how to begin treatments without a doctor’s help; presents information on vaccines and their safe use; and includes an extensive resources section.
The Autism Book provides all the information and reassurance parents need.
