“This handbook covers various treatments for autism spectrum disorder (ASD), focusing primarily on nonpharmacological interventions. … The intended audience appears to be clinicians at trainee level and higher. … This is a useful book that explains in detail various interventions for ASD. It is important for clinicians treating patients with ASD to understand the options for treatment and their basic applications.” (Amy Corcoran, Doody's Book Reviews, February, 2018)
