Translational Approaches to Autism Spectrum Disorder

“This book presents a constellation of research and
clinical perspectives on autism spectrum disorder (ASD) … . This is a great
resource and reference for students, researchers, and even clinicians who are
particularly interested in ASD. Each chapter discusses various areas and
aspects of ASD, which are nicely explained in detail while also providing broad
conceptualization.” (Soo Lee, Doody’s Book Reviews, December, 2015)
