Asperger Syndrome or Autism?
This is a book about Asperger Syndrome (AS). I happen to have a personal interest in this topic as our adopted son, Bernie, was given this diagnosis at age 14. Bern’s arrival at 3 weeks of age in the Gullotta household was greeted with joy by mom, dad (me), and our golden retriever who immediately took up residence under his crib. Dickens or Nanny, if you prefer, insured that Bernie’s slightest need was addressed promptly by either mom or dad and preferably both.
