Sommario/riassunto |
|
This volume covers several perspectives on autism which bring together the most recent scientific views of the nature of this disorder. A number of themes organize major developments and emerging areas in autism:Cognitive and neural systems development: how autism arises in the behavior and thought of very young children.Discovering brain mechanisms underlying social and cognitive deficits in autism: how we can explain ""social awkwardness"" and poor language comprehension in terms of malfunctions of brain mechanisms, revealed by fMRI studies of people with autism. |
