Autism Bibliography
You've got questions on autism? Here are the books to read. Clicking on a title should pull up a list of used copies of these books. Check on bamm.com for new copies if you really want a new one (they're cheaper than Amazon.)
Also check out our Autism Links page.
The most frequently recommended books (to me) are the ones in boldface.
