Autism reaches across every border, culture, and language, yet much autism literature centers on a single country or healthcare system. In Global Perspectives on Autism Assessment and Treatment, Dr. Lincoln Kamau treats autism as the global reality it is: a compassionate, evidence-based, and culturally responsive guide to understanding and supporting autistic individuals worldwide.
Across nine chapters, the book moves from foundations outward, what autism and related neurodevelopmental disorders are, their prevalence and causes, and how children are screened, assessed, and diagnosed, through treatment and intervention services, speech and sensory supports, the overlooked link between autism and vision, and common comorbid conditions. It then turns to autism within families and society, and to the future of research and practice, weaving in neurodiversity, ethics, assistive technology, telehealth, and community-based approaches for settings where specialist resources are scarce.
Written for clinicians, educators, researchers, caregivers, and policymakers, it is both a reference and a call to action.
