Review by Library Journal Review

This collection of contributions from autism and autism education experts addresses strategies for teaching students from preschool through high school and is organized into age-specific chapters. Editors Egel (special education, Univ. of Maryland), Katherine C. Holman (special education, Towson Univ.), and Christine H. Barthold (disabilities, Univ. of Delaware) present in clear, concise language a thorough introduction to autism and its diagnostic criteria for educators new to teaching or assessing such children, as well as for parents who may be facing a diagnosis for the first time. A comprehensive guide to assessments for school-age children on the spectrum is also included. VERDICT This informative volume will be appreciated not only by educators of children and teens with autism, but also by parents who are seeking to provide the optimal educational setting for the best possible outcomes.-T.L.
