Dr. Bryan Jepson's new book, Changing the Course of Autism, is out. I just ordered it. I can't wait to get it. Has anyone read it?

Dr. Jepson is a DAN doctor. The book covers all of the biomedical things that help autism.

I have only read an excerpt but I like his idea that it is medical and not psychological. I am sure this is an excellent book because he wants to demystify the problem that is becoming major and not minor anymore but huge. And there can only be one reason---it's our environment. it's time to treat this the same way we would any other condition. There are cures---we just haven't discovered for sure how to cure it.

or at least keep it from continuing to happen.
And once it has happened, let's find out how to manage it so that families are not destroyed. and the real little person can come back out. Any ideas on why it affects boys more?

I think it is Changing the Course of Autism...the name of the book. Thats all I can find and due out next month sounds like a good read.

You are right. I am going to edit my post and change Face to Course. I am kind of bummed--the online retailor I selected had the book listed as in stock. However, I just checked on the status of my order and it is projected to ship on Aug. 4.

Where I found it also said in stock but as I did more research I found out it isn't even available until July 07....Good Luck and maybe you will get it a little sooner!!!
