What have scientists learned about the causes of autism spectrum disorder? Why do different kids have such different symptoms, and what are the best ways to deal with them? Will there ever be a cure? 

From leading autism researchers, this accessible guide helps you put the latest advances to work for your unique child. Separating fact from fiction about causes, treatments, and prevention, the book guides you to make lifestyle choices that support the developing brain. 

From the impact of sleep, exercise, diet, and technology, to which type of professional help might be the right fit, the authors cover it all with expertise and compassion. Learn about the choices you face - and the steps you can take - to build a happier, healthier life for your child and family.

This book didn’t really have any consequential knowledge that you wouldn’t just learn from googling the same information. Also, it was incredibly pro-ABA, it didn’t offer alternatives or bring up any of the controversy surrounding ABA. I would skip this book if you already have read up on how to help your autistic child from reputable sources.

Pretty general advice
