What causes autism? Is it a genetic disorder, or due to some unknown environmental hazard? Are we facing an autism epidemic? What are the main symptoms, and how does it relate to Asperger syndrome? Everyone has heard of autism, but the disorder itself is little understood. It has captured the public imagination through films and novels portraying individuals with baffling combinations of disability and extraordinary talent, and yet the reality is that it often places a heavy burden on sufferers and their families. This Very Short Introduction offers a clear statement on what is currently known about autism and Asperger syndrome. Explaining the vast array of different conditions that hide behind these two labels, and looking at symptoms from the full spectrum of autistic disorders, it explores the possible causes for the apparent rise in autism and also evaluates the links with neuroscience, psychology, brain development, genetics, and environmental causes including MMR and Thimerosal. This VSI also explores the psychology behind social impairment and savantism, and sheds light on what it is like to live inside the mind of the sufferer.About the Series: Combining authority with wit, accessibility, and style, Very Short Introductions offer an introduction to some of life's most interesting topics. Written by experts for the newcomer, they demonstrate the finest contemporary thinking about the central problems and issues in hundreds of key topics, from philosophy to Freud, quantum theory to Islam.

My 12 year old assembled this
Color: White - 2 Doors
This is a great organizational tool. We needed medicine storage in our bathroom and my 12 year old assembled it in about 20 minutes. Great instructions and plenty of shelving. It looks great in our bathroom. Just perfect easy storage

Not worth it.
Color: White - 2 Doors
There is absolutely nothing sturdy about this cabinet. The design of the anchors are sub standard and the knobs are so cheap that they fell off during shipping. The size is suitable for the amount of things It stores less than I realized, but it will have to do for now. My advice is pass on buying this.
