The book provides a description and analysis of the unusual characteristics of the syndrome and practical strategies to reduce those that are most conspicuous or debilitating. Beginning with a chapter on diagnosis, including an assessment test, the book covers all aspects of the syndrome from language to social behaviour and motor clumsiness, concluding with a chapter based on the questions most frequently asked by those who come into contact with individuals with this syndrome.

In this video Tony Attwood explains and discusses the diagnosis of Asperger's Syndrome and how people who have been diagnosed in this way can be supported, and their strengths developed. He covers the theory of mind of those with this challenge and as he does, his ideas broaden our perception and understanding. The video format enables the veiwer to see his ideas in action and will be invaluable for parent support groups, training, and as a general introduction to Asperger's.
