  • 1 Recommended Books About the Disability Experience Adventures In
    Recommended Books About the Disability Experience Adventures in the Mainstream: Coming of Age with Down Syndrome. (2005). Greg Palmer. Like many parents, Greg Palmer worries about his son’s future. But his son Ned’s last year of high school raises concerns and anxieties for him that most parents don’t experience. Ned has Down syndrome; when high school ends for him, school is out forever. The questions loom: What’s next? How will Ned negotiate the world without the structure of school? Will he find a rewarding job in something other than food service? To help him sort out these questions and document his son’s transition from high school to work, Palmer, an award-winning writer and producer of PBS documentaries, keeps a journal that’s the basis of this thoughtful and entertaining book. (Amazon.com) After the Tears: Parents Talk About Raising a Child With a Disability. (1987). Robin Simons. In parenting a child with a disability you face a major choice. You can believe that your child's condition is a death blow to everything you've dreamed and worked toward until now or you can decide that you will continue to lead the life you'd planned - and incorporate your child into it. Parents who choose the latter course find they do a tremendous amount of growing. This is the story of many such parents - parents who have struggled, learned and grown in the years since their children were born. They share their stories with you to give you the benefit of their experiences, to let you know you're not alone, and to offer you encouragement in growing with and loving your child.

  • Autism As a Controversial Concept. What Kind of Special Educational Needs Can We Find with Autism? Autyzm Jako Koncepcja Kontrowersyjna
    PRIMA EDUCATIONE 2020 MARIA GABRIELLA PEDICONI University of Urbino Department of Economic Society Politics, Italy ORCID: https://orcid.org/0000-0002-4404-414X [email protected] Autism as a Controversial Concept. What Kind of Special Educational Needs Can We Find with Autism? Autyzm jako koncepcja kontrowersyjna. Jakie specjalne potrzeby edukacyjne wiążą się z autyzmem? Abstract. One hundred years after its appearance on the scientific scene, autism finds its place more and more often in the spotlight not only in clinical and therapeutical psychology – in addition to medicine, psychology and neurosci- ence, today schools and health services also deal with it widely. However, autism as a concept remains controversial as well as a phenomenon not yet well understood. Psychoanalysis can help to understand how the concept arose within psychology and how it has changed up to contemporary times. In most cases – the famous ones as well as ordinary ones – the autistic child who finds himself at school seems uneducable and avoids close contact. What kind of special educational needs can we find with autism? This paper is based on Freudian discoveries in order to offer a direction that gives an answer to enlighten the subjective desire to be human among humans even in the case of autism. Keywords: autism; special educational needs; psychoanalysis Abstrakt. Sto lat po pojawieniu się na scenie naukowej autyzm coraz częściej znajduje się w centrum uwagi nie tylko psychologii klinicznej i terapeutycznej, oprócz medycyny, psychologii i neuronauki zajmują się nim bowiem szeroko także szkoły i służba zdrowia. Koncepcja autyzmu pozostaje jednak kontrowersyjna, poza tym zjawisko to nie do końca zostało wyjaśnione.

  • Autistic Authors Booklist and Facts
    Volume 1. No. 2 AUTISTIC AUTHORS BOOKLIST AND FACTS October 28, 2013 By Amanda M Baggs Abstract: A list of autistic authors, previously published on autistics.org. This was originally part of the library of articles available on the Autistics.org web site and therefore the references are not to any particular academic style. Although the list is not up to date it is nonetheless worth wider publication as it contains a valuable number of references not to be found collected elsewhere, and it is the editors consideration that they should be more widely known. Autistic Authors Booklist and Facts Autistic Authors Booklist and Facts By Amanda M Baggs Last updated Sunday 25 June 2006. The following is a booklist of books by autistic authors, alphabetical by author's last name and then as close to chronological as possible. Most are in English, although there are some in other languages. There is a link to the author's website where possible, and in the event that the entire book is published on the web, there is a link to the book. This list does not include people speculated to be autistic, or closeted autistic people, only people who have published as autistic. Bill Gates and Einstein are not here, nor are people who have published books but are not openly autistic (I respect their privacy). Some items in this list are more articles than books, but have been published as if they are books. Some interesting facts about these books are listed below the booklist. Where determinable, books that don't mention autism will have the words "not autism-related" after them.
