I know of non-fiction and autobiographies written by people with autism. I have almost no fiction (novels or short stories etc) written by people who identify themselves as having autism, or written by people who are widely known to have a diagnosis of autism. Do you know of any published works writ...

The topic has featured here before, but not this company with an apparently mature technology to screen out gametes with a risk of autism (initially focusing on sperm), on sale to prospective parents from December: "A service that digitally weaves together the DNA of prospective parents to check for...

I told my doctor, "refill my muscle relaxers, klonipin, and seroquel. I don't want any anti-depressants, bi-polars & mood stabilizers, and for the love of god don't put me back on rispredal." I had some truly horrible experiences with prescribed drugs, and I am on a couple that really seem to h...

Uta Frith (whatever her name is) translated it and put it in a book. I recall reading it on Google Books (the preview contained most of it). Uta Frith in "Autism and Asperger syndrome" (1991) included an English translation of the later 1944 paper, and described this as Asperger's "first", "origina...

I haven't read that one. Does it mention AS at all? No, but it is claimed to be the first article describing children with characteristics that later became known as AS - e.g. "Where it is about logical thinking, where the issue is meeting their special interests, they are ahead, surprise their tea...

Sometimes there are news stories involving single or multiple deaths that I find very funny, but other people do not. There was one this week where the cause of death and the place were absolutely hilarious (to me). The same thing happens when someone supposedly really famous dies, and I can see no ...

Parts of the translation are quoted in this book: The Complete Guide to Asperger's Syndrome I have that book, and the quote which Attwood uses to begin Chapter 1 appears in 600,000 results from Google (Attwood uses a translation by Brit Wilczek, presumably provided directly by Springer). I would ve...

Can anyone point me to a copy of Hans Asperger's 1938 paper, in German or English?

Okay, I am convinced - the registration http://www.mipsor.state.mi.us/PSORSearchDetails.aspx?oid=20049375 has a mugshot which looks like the same person. I assume that mipsor....

Did I read ''Autistics have larger foreheads'' somewhere here? Kanner noted "large heads" in his subjects when first defining autism. The rate of brain development in ASD is different from babies and children without ASD, for instance: Gregory L Wallace, Darold A Treffert (2004) Head size and autis...

I genuinely appreciate the many comments about not using medication. There is no medication "for autism". My interest is in the use of prescription medication (particularly psycho-active medication) and the relationship between actual use and the optimal use described by the NICE / NIMH etc guidelin...
