All in the Mind

27 December 2005

All in the Mind studies the world of autism in a special programme dedicated to the latest research. Dr Raj Persaud asks what the scientists now know about the genetic make-up of autism and whether it really is one disorder or separate, but related, conditions.

 

Also, he visits a school to find out how the latest findings are helping to improve the education of children with autism and severe learning disability.

Well, I've just listened to it, and I really am finding it difficult to work out what I think of it, some of it actually wound me up, but I did think Wendy Lawson's small part was good.

 

You can Email them with comments.

 

This is the link to listen again.

I think that I have to agree with you Brook. Wendy Lawson was excellent but as for the rest of the programme

Must say I listened to it with my mind going 'Hmm...' all the way through most of it too.
