Sensory motor development
Emotions
Social skills and understanding others
Focused and isolated attention
Perception
Problem solving ability and flexibility
Mental health and trauma
The book also explains the wider phenomena associated with the autistic spectrum such as the microbiome and gut health, autoimmune challenges, synaesthesia, facial blindness, alexithymia, stimming, LGBTQ preferences, Pathological Demand Avoidance (PDA), perceived higher prevalence of males, higher prevalence of autism if conceived in the winter months and various others.
Autism B Theory highlights significant supports that autistic people can implement themselves, as well as supports that family members, carers and professionals can use to support autistic and neurodivergent people with to promote better opportunities.
It is a must have for anyone interested in understanding or supporting autism.
