Educating and caring for an autistic child is a severely difficult task too often associated with frustration and disappointment. This book challenges this assumption, quoting case studies where curative education based on a holistic approach has resulted in marked improvements in the autistic individual's behaviour and social integration. Within an extended holistic programme, involving physical, sensory, social and self-recognition leading to first steps in relationships and social skills. The authors cite their own practical experiences with these therapies as well as the findings of other experts in the field to back up their discoveries.
