Teaching Children with Autism to Mind-read
S. Baron-Cohen, P. Howlin, J. Hadwin and J. Swettenham

Theory of Mind in the ability to infer other people's mental states and to use this information to interpret speech and predict action. This practical book applies these mind-reading principles to children with autism, focusing chiefly on treating their social and communicative abnormalties. Guiding readers through the underlying experimental and clinical principles of this experimental theory, the authors provide practitioners with an adaptable and unique program for tackling behavioral problems in autistic children.
