It explains early intervention, but it offers so much more....<i> Early Intervention & Autism </i>gives parents the hands-on tools and strategies to start working effectively with a child, even before EI services kick in. Autism is a continuum; each child with ASD is unique. As Dr. Jim makes clear, there is no one-size-fits-all intervention. His focus is always on the child, treating the child, not the symptoms." </b></p><p>Dr. Temple Grandin</p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><P>Dr. James Ball, a Board Certified Behavior Analyst, has been in the autism field for over twenty years providing educational, residential, and employment services to children and adults affected by autism.
