Autism spectrum disorders are developmental disorders. Individuals with autism spectrum disorders develop differently. These differences are usually present in social interaction, communication, and sensory processing, and become visible through a wide variety of behavioral responses that differ from individuals without autism spectrum disorders. Despite significant research efforts, the exact causes of autism spectrum disorders remain poorly understood; however, researchers have gained extensive insights into possible pathomechanisms, even at the molecular level of cells. Many diagnostic criteria have been developed, adapted, and improved. The eight chapters in this book highlight the current state-of-the-art in many areas of autism spectrum disorders. Chapter 1 provides an overview of the epidemiology of autism spectrum disorders and the current knowledge of the underlying pathogenic mechanisms. Chapter 2 summarizes the diagnostic criteria and procedures and highlights present and upcoming therapeutic strategies. Chapter 3 reviews the adverse events and trauma in people with autism spectrum disorders. Chapters 4 and 5 focus on atypical sensory processing, and Chapter 6 discusses the genetic overlap of autism spectrum disorders with other neuropsychiatric disorders such as attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), depression, and schizophrenia. Chapter 7 focuses on the contribution of abnormalities in mitochondria, and chapter 8 discusses gut-brain interactions and a potential role for microbiota in autism spectrum disorders. This book is aimed primarily at clinicians and scientists, but many areas will also be of interest to the layperson.

This book was conceived as an essential tool to promote information and disseminate knowledge that permeates the vast autistic universe. Our purpose is to provide readers with a trusted, accessible source of wisdom, empowering them to not only understand, but also more effectively support children on the autism spectrum. We recognize that knowledge is the key that allows us to act with clarity and confidence, especially when faced with the most challenging situations. Lack of knowledge can amplify difficulties, fears and uncertainties, while knowledge enables us to discern truth from misinformation and act in an organized, foresighted and confident way to overcome our obstacles. In the pages of this guide, readers will find not only basic concepts, but also fundamental information that will illuminate many situations faced daily by those immersed in the autistic universe, whether directly or indirectly. From approaches to what autism is and how it is diagnosed, to therapeutic and practical strategies for dealing with specific challenges, we seek to offer a comprehensive and practical overview to help readers on their journey. Our intention is that this book will become an invaluable source of knowledge and guidance for parents, caregivers, educators, healthcare professionals, and all individuals committed to creating an inclusive and welcoming environment for children with autism. We firmly believe that, with adequate access to information and a solid understanding of the needs and potential of people on the autism spectrum, we can build a more empathetic, understanding and inclusive world for everyone.

A comprehensive program that targets all four of the 4-A epidemics: autism, ADHD, asthma, and allergies “An easy-to-read commonsense guide to beneficial biomedical treatments.”—Temple Grandin Doctors have generally overlooked the connections among the 4-A disorders. For years the medical establishment has considered autism medically untreatable and utterly incurable, and has limited ADHD treatment mainly to symptom suppression. Dr. Kenneth Bock, a leading medical innovator, along with his colleagues, have discovered a solution that goes to the root of the problem. They have found that modern toxins, nutritional deficiencies, metabolic imbalances, genetic vulnerabilities, and assaults on the immune and gastrointestinal systems trigger most of the symptoms of the 4-A disorders, resulting in frequent misdiagnosis and untold mysteries. Dr. Bock’s remarkable Healing Program is an innovative biomedical approach that has changed the lives of more than a thousand children. Drawn from medical research and based on years of clinical success, this program offers a safe, sensible solution that is individualized to each child to help remedy the root causes. Dr. Bock also shares the dramatic true stories of parents and children that will inspire you to change the life of your own child. Hope is at last within reach.
