"This practical workbook was developed in consultation with carers and is an effective everyday resource full of facts, advice and problem solving. It can be used in groups or with individuals, and covers areas such as atypical social behaviour, the importance of routine, sexual relationships, communication and mental health in people with AS. Packed with exercises and case vignettes to help you get to know the person you are supporting better, there is also a trouble-shooting section at the end of each chapter with practical solutions for tackling common problems." - BOOK JACKET
