### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Illuminating concept, but limited understanding of what might done to help people
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on May 25, 2015*

Vermeulen does a nice job of explicating the idea of context blindness as a central problem for people on the Autism Spectrum.  While he does his best to review the research in support of this idea and how it fits with other frequently cited challenges for people with ASD such as with central coherence, theory of mind, and executive function, it seemed to me that he might have done it in a far more compact format, such as a well referenced essay.  In the end, his suggestion that people might benefit more from situational training than training limited to skills out of context (reading emotions, for instance) makes a lot of sense and it the kind of thing that you see in Crooke and Winner's efforts for workability (Social Thinking at Work: Why Should I Care?) and in the Pimsleur method for language learning.  Still, I think his pessimism, claiming an inability of people on the Autism Spectrum to learn context awareness and sensitivity is roundly challenged by the gains we see in people who receive developmental-relationship based approaches (DIR/Floortime, PLAY Project, etc.) or those that are informed by those approaches (e.g. Early Start Denver Model) His lack of awareness of or attention to these evidence based and emotionally powered interventions, ones that change the paradigm of treatment, is a severe limitation for a book that otherwise does a commendable job in helping us all recognize some of the difficulties people with ASD can have.  He offers a very concept but he is limited when it comes to thinking about what to do about it.

    A Must Read for Anyone Who has the Honor of Working with Individuals with ASD
  

*by W***L on Reviewed in the United States on July 11, 2014*

I am a special education teacher who works with students with ASD and I have a son who was diagnosed with AS pre-DSM-V.  I have always struggled with explaining autism to the support staff in my classroom as I never felt the current accepted theories adequately described the full scope of autism.  I've also felt that my efforts to promote social understanding with my students have fallen short.  This book has given me a much better understanding of autism and why it is such a complex disorder.  The author provides many relevant examples to help make his points.  He also provides ideas for modifying our approach to supporting individuals with ASD and he emphasizes the importance of creating an autism friendly environment which has always been my goal in my classroom.  Thank you AAPC Publishing for publishing a translated version of what I know has forever changed my approach and outlook to supporting individuals with ASD, including and most importantly my son.Just FYI:  I found information about this book at the Social Thinking website.

*by C***R on Reviewed in the United States on June 10, 2016*

I am still reading this book (about 65% of the way done) and I am amazed.  I started reading this to help understand how the autistic mind thinks but I have found the information fascinating.  I've been reading it on the train in to work and I can't wait each morning to pick it up.  The book does a great job explaining how the "typical" mind works and then how the autistic mind would work in a similar situation.  The author includes many studies to validate his points.  I would recommend this to anyone (whether they know someone with Autism or not).
