Books on ASD suggestions please.

Recommended Posts

I was wondering what books anybody has found useful and can relate to in regards to ASD? I have read a book by Tony Attwood which was good but I would like to gain more info on the condition and other related issues that go with it especially from a female point of view.

 

Any suggestions would be great.

Thanks

I recently bought and read that book.  It gets good ratings:
