Subject: [NTLK] Two Newton Books on Asperger Syndrom on UNNA
> I've uploaded two Paperback Newton books to UNNA related to Asperger
> Syndrom. Both are by Marc Segar:
> The Battles of the Autistic Thinker, a personal story of a man that had
Asperger's Syndrom and how he learned
> to cope.
>
> A survival guide for people with Asperger syndrome, a bookwith suggestions
for people with Asperger Syndrom on how to deal
> with it in the real world
>
> Asperger Syndome (AS) is a disability on the autistic spectrum that is
> characterized by difficulties in both verbal and non-verbal communication,
> challenging social behavior, and difficulties understanding the
> intentions of other as well as one's own emotions. It is a
> neurobiological condition whose origin and cause remains unknown. Persons
> diagnosed with AS tend to be on the higher functioning end of the autistic
> spectrum. Many of them are able to become independent as adults, and lead
> apparently "normal lives." However, appearance is not reality for those
> who live with them as mates or as their children or relatives. Persons
> with AS are burdened with a wide range of "hidden" problems and
> difficulties throughout their lives.
>
>
> If you relate to anything in this description or know someone that does
> you'll find these interesting reading. Search Google for "Asperger
> Syndrom" and "mindblind" if you want to find more information.
