Sense and nonsense in the behavioral treatment of autism : it has to be said / autism partnership, Ron Leaf, Mitchell Taubman, John McEachin ; with chapters co-written by Danielle Baker ... [et al.]. - New York, NY : DRL Books, c2008. - xxii, 254 p. : ill. ; 28 cm.

"A renowned team of professionals sift the sense from the nonsense in assessing the approaches to the treatment of autism. In a field exploding with alternative treatments, choosing the best course of action for the child with autism can be a daunting task. The authors offer compelling practical evidence of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) as the most reliable approach to education, and provide a much needed antidote to other treatments lacking empirical data."
