A Strange World is an intriguing and comprehensive guide to autistic spectrum disorders presented from a new scientific perspective. Delfos's biopsychological model provides a strong theoretical analysis of the nature of autism and what problems it can cause. She addresses issues such as differences between men and women with autistic spectrum disorders, and the question of what is `normal', illustrating her points with many real life examples. Delfos offers practical advice on how to approach these problems from the various perspectives of autistic children, adolescents and adults, and parents and carers of autistic people. A Strange World is an accessible resource for parents and an important textbook for students and professionals.
