AUTISM GEBUNDEN

Creative thinking and collaborative scientific research have advanced our understanding of
autism  and we are now beginning to synthesize the data into evidence and theories. Autism:
Current Theories and Evidence presents current theories about autism and the evidence that
supports them. The goal is to show how the scientific method is revealing the biological bases
of this spectrum of disorders  thereby leading the way to their treatment and prevention using
evidence-based medicine. This book has 20 chapters divided into 6 sections: Molecular and
Clinical Genetics  Neurotransmitters and Cell Signaling  Endocrinology  Growth and Metabolism 
Immunology  Maternal-Fetal Effects and Neuroinflammation  Neuroanatomy  Imaging and Neural
networks  and Environmental Mechanisms and Models. The subjects cover a wide range of current
scientific work in the field of autism  with strong and growing evidence to support them  and
demonstrate both the breadth and depth of current autism research. The reader is encouraged to
consider how theories and the scientific method  in the hands of these and other dedicated
researchers  are leading to greater knowledge and continued progress in autism research.
