We
are an independent publisher specializing in books on
autism spectrum disorders based on the latest research on
autism, Asperger syndrome
and other pervasive developmental disorders. We take pride in
offering books that provide practical solutions for individuals
with an autism spectrum disorder as well as parents, teachers
or others working or living with an individual with an autism
spectrum disorder. In addition to autism books and asperger
books, we offer videos and other interactive products.
We
have recently expanded our titles of books and resources on social
skills and sensory integration due to the importance
of these areas for individuals on the autism spectrum and
the scarcity of resources in these areas.
Whether
you need information about an autism spectrum disorder or
social skills or sensory integration, we offer books, resources,
and conferences of the highest caliber with a practical focus.

Asperger Publishing Company is eagerly awaiting the premiere
of an HBO drama that centers around the life of Dr. Temple
Grandin, co-author of Developing
Talents. "Temple Grandin" will star award-winning
actress Claire Danes, whose portrayal of Dr. Grandin has
already received rave reviews. The film follows Dr. Grandin's
life, starting with her prognosis and continuing through
her inspirational rise to becoming a world-renowned consultant
in animal sciences and an autism advocate.
To
celebrate this exciting occasion, AAPC is offering Developing
Talents at 20% off its original price! Enter "HBO"
in the coupon code box when placing an online order or mention
this promotion when placing a phone or fax order. This offer
ends February 13.
In the updated and expanded
edition of Developing
Talents, the authors take
an in-depth look at a growing area of the U.S. economy:
entrepreneurship. Using real-life examples, they point out
that many of the unique characteristics of individuals on
the autism spectrum lend themselves well to entrepreneurial
ventures. The book also explores many often unnoticed aspects
of Vocational Rehabilitation programs that provide job training
and placement for people with disabilities as well as Social
Security Administration programs that offer vocational assistance.
Finally, employment figures and prospects have been updated
and new jobs have been added that are particularly well
suited for those on the spectrum, resulting in the most
current look at the employment prospects for individuals
with Asperger Syndrome and high-functioning autism.
"Temple
Grandin" will premiere at 8 p.m. ET on February 6 on
HBO.
