Download or read book My Life Beyond Autism written by Hey Gee and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2022-03-29 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Combining 36 pages of full illustrations with a first-hand account of living life as a child with autism, this book provides a humbling and inspiring look at how an autism spectrum disorder affects children. Tracy likes to draw, make movies and play, just like other kids. She also has autism spectrum disorder. This means she processes many everyday situations differently, such as making friends. Over time, she’s learned tricks for communicating and coping when things are hard for her. Follow along as Tracy gives a peek at what life is really like for someone living with autism and how she discovered life beyond this common disorder. Children’s voices are rarely heard amid the complexity of modern medicine. That's why every story in the My Life Beyond series stems from the imagination and experience of a Mayo Clinic patient. The books were developed through collaboration between these patients, Mayo Clinic physicians and author-illustrator Hey Gee. Through this unique lens of inspiring real-life experiences, the series explores how children view illness, challenges and recovery. One in fifty-four children in the U.S. are diagnosed with an autism spectrum disorder—which includes autism, Asperger's syndrome, and childhood disintegrative disorder—but their experiences with this condition are rarely shared. With 36 pages of full illustrations, My Life Beyond Autism brings the reader into the world of a child diagnosed with autism to show how children with this condition view their disorder and work through common behavioral challenges. The “My Life Beyond” graphic novel book series is published in collaboration with Fondation Ipsen.
Download or read book Hello I Have Autism written by Amorette French and published by . This book was released on 2021-02-18 with total page 27 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As someone on the spectrum, growing up, I missed out on children's books in which I could relate to the main character. Now, hearing from parents of children on the spectrum, it was clear that there is still a need. But I didn't want to just write a book with a relatable character; I wanted to write something that offered potential aids, from one autistic to another. I also wanted to help caregivers by providing a little more information, an inside look, as to how we on the spectrum often think and ways to be supportive.So meet Amme.---This guide is a refreshing, honest portrayal of what life is like for a child with autism. It was informative, while providing insight and scientific terminology that can be empowering for children on the spectrum to see in a text. I could see myself using the guide to introduce ASD to school age students, as well as parents who may be unsure about how to help their child with ASD. Though there was a lot of text, this guide could also be simplified by the reader to introduce younger children to the varying needs of others. Overall, I believe there is a deficit in honest & helpful depictions of children with special needs in the literary world. This guide could help be a resource to change that! Ellen K. Early Childhood and Special Education/Montessori Certified Teacher ---Amorette French is a courageous human being who has opened her heart and mind to others by sharing the perilous journey of her life to benefit autistic children as well as their caregivers, families and friends.

Book excerpt: Though our understanding of autism has greatly expanded, many autistic individuals are still missed or misdiagnosed. This highly accessible book clarifies many ways that autism can present, particularly in people who camouflage to hide their autistic traits. The authors take the reader step by step through the diagnostic criteria, incorporating the latest research as well as quotes from over 100 autistic contributors that bring that research to life. They also describe many aspects of autism that are not included in the current diagnostic criteria, such as autistic strengths and co-occurring disorders. Readers will learn about highly relevant topics, such as different types of empathy, sensory systems that are not well known, neuro-crash and burn out, and relative versus absolute thinking. This book provides a deep, current, and neurodiversity-affirmative understanding of the less obvious presentations of autism. It is relevant to all healthcare professionals, educators, family members, autistic individuals, and anyone who is curious about autism. A clinical companion guide, Is This Autism? A Companion Guide for Diagnosing, is available for clinicians who make mental health diagnoses.

Download or read book Communication in Autism written by Joanne Arciuli and published by John Benjamins Publishing Company. This book was released on 2014-10-15 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Communication in Autism adopts a multidisciplinary approach to explore one of the most common developmental disorders associated with communication impairment. Perhaps the most fascinating thing about communication in autism is that variation is as extreme as it could possibly be. While some individuals with autism have age-appropriate language, a number have exceptional language skills; others have little or no spoken language. In between these extremes are individuals who experience significant linguistic impairments. These impairments can affect peer relations and literacy skills. The chapters in this volume provide comprehensive coverage of both the theoretical underpinnings and the practical aspects of autistic communication. The result is a volume that showcases the wide range of methodologies being used in this field of research. It is invaluable for scientists, service providers, parents, individuals with autism, and students learning about communication and autism (e.g., in psychology, speech pathology, and education).

Download or read book The Shared Mind written by Jordan Zlatev and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2008-06-26 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The cognitive and language sciences are increasingly oriented towards the social dimension of human cognition and communication. The hitherto dominant approach in modern cognitive science has viewed “social cognition” through the prism of the traditional philosophical puzzle of how individuals solve the problem of understanding Other Minds. The Shared Mind challenges the conventional “theory of mind” approach, proposing that the human mind is fundamentally based on intersubjectivity: the sharing of affective, conative, intentional and cognitive states and processes between a plurality of subjects. The socially shared, intersubjective foundation of the human mind is manifest in the structure of early interaction and communication, imitation, gestural communication and the normative and argumentative nature of language. In this path breaking volume, leading researchers from psychology, linguistics, philosophy and primatology offer complementary perspectives on the role of intersubjectivity in the context of human development, comparative cognition and evolution, and language and linguistic theory.
