TWO NEW BOOKS ABOUT AUTISM

In the NZ Listener issue dated 25-31 August there are reviews by Philip Matthews of A Perfect World by David Cohen, Random House $35 and At Home in the Land of Oz by Anne Clinard Barnhill, Jessica Kingsley Publishers, $45, both on the subject of autism.

Matthews has two pages devoted to his detailed and thoughtful reviews. He has a four year old daughter with high functioning autism so he knows his subject. I am sure anyone with an interest in autism will find his comments well worth reading.

David Cohen also has a website on this subject. Find him at http://humans.org.nz
