This is the first book I have read where a wise, highly experienced doctor has discussed his use of medications on many different types of individuals on the autism spectrum. This book is essential reading for every parent who has a child who is either taking medication or thinking about the use of medication. ""- from the Foreword by Dr Temple Grandin
When families are faced with a diagnosis of autism, they find themselves swimming in a vast sea of new terms and treatment options. It can be hard to know what to try or how to proceed. In this book, Dr Aull identifies the best and safest treatment strategies for your child’s particular diagnosis.
Dr Aull explains how he assigns an autism diagnosis and presents the medical treatments available to children and young adults on the spectrum. He offers invaluable information on the results you can expect with all types of medications and what can be done to create a successful treatment regimen.

Temple Grandin earned her Ph.D. in animal science from the University of Illinois, went on to become an associate professor at Colorado State University, and wrote two books on autism, including the seminal "Thinking in Pictures". One of the most celebrated -- and effective -- animal advocates on the planet, Grandin revolutionized animal movement systems and spearheaded reform of the quality of life for the world's agricultural animals. Dr. Aull is a behavioral pediatrician who has been diagnosing autism spectrum disorders and treating patients on the spectrum for more than 30 years. He practices in Carmel, Indiana, a suburb of Indianapolis, where he resides with his wife. Dr Aull spent 24 years in a general pediatric practice, which aided him in being able to distinguish normal behavior from abnormal behavior in children and young adults. For many years, Dr Aull has spoken at ADHD and autism conferences about the milder forms of autism spectrum disorders and how they may be diagnosed and treated.
