From the Author
From "The Everything Parent's Guide to Children with Asperger's Syndrome," author William Stillman's definition of AS: "Asperger's Syndrome is the natural way by which some perceive the world from an alternate perspective and logic, creating misunderstandings, misinterpretations and social challenges when one attempts to assimilate with the world at large."
