There is no gain saying that, lately, lots of people have started to link Asperger syndrome to Autism. Well, the truth is that, Asperger syndrome is not particularly Autism; as a matter of fact, where the two are related is perhaps only in the several similar symptoms exhibited by both medical conditions.
Besides that, I think one reason lots of parents caught this drift is because they are rather more familiar with Autism compared to Asperger syndrome. In fact, recently, you may have seen a story on Oprah about Jenny McCarthy and her son and their realization that he had Autism.
Anyway, since you are here right now, I want you to get your copy of this book and start learning how to identify and manage the condition as you will soon find out that early discovery and treatment helps a lot for the future of the sufferers!
