Is autism theory really necessary? -- Behavioural theory : no longer about rats and monkeys -- Developmental theory : from three mountains to two dolls -- Learning style theory : a theory for every hour of the day -- The three big ideas of cognitive autism theory -- Other voices on cognitive autism theory -- The weak central coherence of autism theory -- Autism theory and practice : ideology, faddism, politics, and marketing -- What has 70 years of autism theory taught us?
As it stands, there is little crossover between theoretical knowledge on autism and Asperger syndrome, and autism intervention. This textbook provides the first guide to all theoretical output, including 'mainstream' and 'alternative', as well as non-specific theories that can be applied to autism and Asperger syndrome.
