Asperger Syndrome and Sensory Issues

 Practical solutions for making sense of the world
Sensory issues greatly impact on how children and youths with Asperger Syndrome get along with others and are successful in school and home. This book uncovers the puzzling behaviours of those with Asperger Syndrome that have a sensory base.
Includes a review of relevant formal and informal assessment tools and a chapter devoted to practical interventions in the sensory areas, including specific behaviours, possible reasons for their occurrence and strategies to help promote home, school and community success.
Written for professionals and parents alike, the authors’ use of ‘the sensory gang’ – a set of clever icons – helps navigate between the senses in an effort to match interventions with specific behaviours.
