This book focuses on a recent, important psychological theory of autism, the `theory of mind' hypothesis, which states that children with autism are unable to comprehend other people's mental states.

This book is intended for third-year undergraduates in developmental psychology, child psychiatrists, philosophers of mind, cognitive psychologists.
