Another marvellous book. It was very informative and opened up some terrific ideas about ASD and how to work with them. My next-door neighbor is autistic and it's nice to understand what types of challenges these individuals face.

Textbook for Fall ‘20—I’m getting a head start on the semester’s reading list.

I read this book as part of the class requirement for EDEX 701 (Nature of Students with Autism) at the University of South Carolina's MAT in severe and multiple disorders. It was my last class in the program, and I have many years of experience in applied behavior analysis, but I still learned a lot in the class and from this book. I really appreciated the sections in which they included perspectives from practitioners and from people with ASD or with relatives who have ASD, and that Hall provided multiple perspectives and many therapies. I would recommend you read this book if you are an educator!
