Critics Review
At last - a book that looks at the big picture regarding reasonable adjustments for autistic children. Luke writes with profound understanding and with a clarity that cuts through ignorance, and makes practical, feasible suggestions that challenge the discrimination that our children face. This book is quite simply a guidebook for happier, healthier autistic adults in a generation’s time. * Dr Clare Lawrence, Associate Professor, Participatory Autism Research *
