内容説明
The behaviour of autistic children - repetititve actions, impaired social functioning, disordered communication - was once attributed to poor parenting. Although it is now known to be linked to anatomical changes in the brain, autism remains an incompletely understood disorder. Diagnostic markers remain elusive and there is as yet no uniformly effective treatment for autistic children and adults. In "The Neurobiology of Autism" Margaret Bauman and Thomas Kemper bring together leading investigators in the field of autism to discuss recent advances in scientific research that point to a neurobiological basis for autism and to examine the clinical implications of this research. Topics covered include genetic studies, basic neuroscience (physiology, anatomy, chemistry), MRI and PET imaging, animal studies, and analyses of specific regions of the brain, including the amygdala, hippocampus, cerebellum and brainstem. The authors conclude that the range of behaviours currently classified as autism is likely to represent a spectrum of autistic disorders.

内容説明
In 'The Neurobiology of Autism' Margaret Bauman and Thomas Kemper bring together leading investigators from the field of autism to discuss advances in scientific research that point to a neurobiological basis for autism and to examine the clinical implications of the research. These authors present up-to-date accounts of their own research as well as provide comprehensive reviews of the work of others. The result is a compilation of information in a single source that will enable clinical investigators to begin to speculate about the seemingly disparate pieces of information already available, consider how they might fit together, and develop new ideas and avenues for further research.
