Synopsis

Autism and Intellectual Disability in Adults: Volume 1 explores issues and practice affecting the support of adults with intellectual disabilities who are on the autism spectrum. The focus is not on the causes of autism; rather, the volume considers ways in which autistic people (focusing here on those with additional intellectual impairments) can have the best possible quality of life, on their own terms. Common themes emerge between contributors, including the fundamental requirement to acknowledge, respect and facilitate autistic expertise as being central to the production of research, policy and practice. Topics covered include policy, health, economics, wellbeing and equality, as well as a wealth of practical information and advocacy-related material.
