Dear Adam,
I am the mother of a 25 year old who is diagnosed with an autistic spectrum disorder. I recently read A History of Autism and found it fascinating and really, really illuminating.
I’ve written you a letter and have been trying to find a mailing address for you. May I send a letter to you through your agent? If so, would you kindly e-mail me that person’s name and address, or an address you would permit me to use?

Thank you for writing A History of Autism. I eagerly await your next publication!

Kind regards,
Nancy Crown

Hi Claudine,

Thanks for posting your message. Of course social difficultiies are the mean feature of both autism and Asperger’s syndrome. There are many strategies being developed which can help. How old is your son now?

Best wishes,

Adam

I have been reading about your son and 2 daughters. I have 2 girls, the younger of which had speech difficuties (verbal dyspraxia) I admire your journey and how you have made a huge positive contribution; also because I knew you in JC days and have all those silly pictures of you in your raincoat in Santiago de Compostella(sp) I find it all touching, particularly how you mention your son’s condition brought you closer to your father. I look forward to reading your book when it comes out!jh

Hi Valerie,

Many thanks for your message. Yes, there remains enormous misunderstanding about Asperger’s syndrome. Almost all individuals with Asperger’s have social difficulties, and many also experience sensory processing abnormalities. Usually, people with Asperger’s syndrome do have average or above-average IQs, but the DSM-IV description of their having no language delays has proved very misleading, because the language of many people with Asperger’s tends to be very stilted. I have been told that there is a debate going on about whether the classification of Asperger’s syndrome should be removed from DSM-V when it is eventually published.

Best of luck with your son!

Adam
