This book was interesting as I have family members with autism. Sorry I didn't get to read this until now.

A very useful book, dispelling some of the myths surrounding autism, and explaining that it is not just a childhood condition, but can affect aging adults too.

Plenty of information, helpful tips for dealing with someone suffering and an interesting read.

First off, I just want to say thank you for this existing, as an adult with Autism, let me tell you, there are not a lot of resources out there for us, a lot of people think that the disorder just goes away when you are an adult or that it never gets worse as you age, believe me when I say it was immensely frustrating. This book is helpful to not just people who have Autism, but also to recommend to people who have to interact with Autistic people on a daily basis or honestly just anyone wishing to understand the disorder and how it presents in adults.

I do wish the book had an appendix or dedicated chapter with a list of resources for more information, but even lacking that this book is very useful. Again thank you for writing it!

This book pays much-needed attention to adults on the autism spectrum, including consideration for those of us who "missed" being diagnosed in childhood. It provides important insight into why some adults may lack official diagnosis, and makes a vital case that recognition at any age can provide valuable insight and meaning.

I received a copy of Understanding Autism in Adults and aging adults: improving diagnosis and quality of life by Theresa Regan
For an honest review.

This is one book I would personally recommend for people, who crosses paths with autism spectrum disorders, either personal or in a working relationship.

I found this book Brilliant and very informative. The case studies of people where clearly explained and were excellent throughout. All examples illustrated how they came to being diagnosed. This gave me a greater understanding of autism, Asperger’s and all autistic spectrum disorders. I found this book very good especially as I work with Children and young adults with Autism and Asperger’s.

I have purchased this book and use it regularly as a reference book within my job role. I have recommended this book to my work colleagues and have found this book very useful.

This book is a must read for anyone who supports or educates children and adults on the autistic spectrum. As a teacher specialising in language, literacy and communication I often wonder what will happen once my students leave the bubble of education. What kind of world awaits them when they are no longer considered cute or idiosyncratic by a harsh and isolating society. These thoughts often trouble me but it has been enlightening to read such a well considered and researched book.

I would recommend that parents of students and staff who teach or support adults or teens with Autism purchase this title as it is educational, well written and informative.

This very-well documented book offers a perfect guidance to detecting and offering the proper psychological advice to adults diagnosed with autism later in life. Besides this, it is very useful to family members and people close to them, as they can eventually work together strategies to progress towards a better social and work inclusion. Such books help to diminish the stigma and increase the understanding of autism, particularly to adults not diagnosed at the proper time or being offered an incorrect psychological evaluation.
The book is written in an accessible way, easy to be understood by non-professionals and offering enough examples to better understand the autism spectrum.
Useful, interesting and an indispensable guide for better understanding and coping with autism.

A must to read book for any parent or carer. We normally talk about autism in children but forgot that the children grow up. This book enlightened me, since I have been reading about Autism for quite some time. really well explained.

A well written, insightful look into something that is becoming more and more relevant. Not too long ago autism was not recognized as a viable diagnosis and now, to have this attention, is a huge step. Children today are being diagnosed earlier and their parents are realizing that they too may have some elements of ASD. I think this book would be well put in every medical or educational course available. I am truly grateful for Theresa Regan tackling this subject.

I am not a doctor, therapist, just a mom who run into everyday people. A lot of children have been diagnosed with Autism and I find that one day they will be adults and I need to understand a little more of what goes on and how to help those who need guidance in this worlds.
Dr. Regan offers both her professional experience working with the adult and geriatric ASD population. I enjoyed her personal experiences as a mother of a child who is in the spectrum.
I have a family member who's adult daughter is has Autism and I have watched how it has effected their lives and how they try and guide her thought adulthood.

I found this book to be helpful in guiding those who have family and those who interact with those with Autism. Everyone needs to have a little more understanding who wide this spectrum is and how to treat those who have are one extreme to the other as well as everyone in-between.
I plan to pass suggest this book to those I know struggling with a child as well as those who are in this area of life.
Advance Copy from Netgalley and the Publisher.

I would recommend it for anyone that has experience with Autistic Adults whether it is your or others

Excellent!
