About This Item
New York: St. Martin's Press. Fine. 2003. Uncorrected Proofs. Softcover. 0312313756 . Uncorrected proofs in new condition, in glossy printed card covers ; 1.18 x 9.45 x 6.3 Inches; 408 pages; Intimately acquainting readers with nine of the forty-five autists with whom she has worked, Karen Zelan, a former associate of Bruno Bettel-heim and co-author of his book on reading, documents how psychotherapy helps autistic youth overcome their problems in socializing, communicating, playing, feeling, and thinking. With her riveting narratives, Zelan captures how it is to be autistic. She describes the ways these young people meet the challenges of being the way they are. Her accounts of her breakthroughs demonstrate how the social context in which autistic children find themselves can make a significant difference in their development, their self-esteem, and their ability to think through problems in living. These real-life stories reveal what works with a range of autistic children-and why, offering humane ways of dealing with the severe problems of autism and of closing the gap between their world and ours. .
