Download or read book Autism and the Edges of the Known World written by Olga Bogdashina and published by Jessica Kingsley Publishers. This book was released on 2011-01-15 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this intelligent and incisive book, Olga Bogdashina explores old and new theories of sensory perception and communication in autism. Drawing on linguistics, philosophy, neuroscience, psychology, anthropology and quantum mechanics, she looks at how the nature of the senses inform an individual's view of the world, and how language both reflects and constructs that view. Examining the 'whys' and 'hows' of the senses, and the role of language, Olga Bogdashina challenges common perceptions of what it means to be 'normal' and 'abnormal'. In doing so she shows that autism can help to illuminate our understanding of what it means to be human, and of how we develop faculties that shape our cognition, language, and behaviour. In the final chapter, she explores phenomena often associated with the paranormal - including premonitions, telepathy and déjà vu - and shows that these can largely be explained in natural terms. This book will appeal to anyone with a personal or professional interest in autism, including students and researchers, clinical practitioners, individuals on the autism spectrum and their families, teachers, speech and occupational therapists, and other professionals.

Download or read book Using Intensive Interaction and Sensory Integration written by Jane Horwood and published by Jessica Kingsley Publishers. This book was released on 2008-06-15 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: People with severe autism experience the sensory information they receive from the world completely differently to those not on the spectrum. They feel cut off and overwhelmed, and their behaviour can become very distressed. This handbook shows how we can engage with people who are non-verbal or semi-verbal and sometimes even those who have speech but lose the power to process it when they are in crisis. We can help them to make sense of the world. Intensive Interaction uses a person’s own body language to make contact with them and Sensory Integration develops the capacity of an individual to receive, process and apply meaning to information provided by the senses through targeted physical activities. These techniques can be used to develop an environment tailored to the particular sensory needs of the person with severe autism, reducing factors that cause distress. With illustrations, case examples and a wide range of tried-and-tested techniques, this practical guide provides indispensable tools for parents, carers and other professionals supporting people with severe autism and other learning disabilities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: `Brilliantly, Olga weaves together science and real life experiences of people with autism leading the reader to a greater understanding of how sensory differences can bring people with autism to the edges and beyond of neurotypical perception. This book has my highest recommendation for anyone wanting to learn more about sensory awareness and perception for people with autism - as well as for themselves.'---Stephen Shore, Ed.D., Assistant Professor of Special Education at Adelphi University and internationally-known author, presenter, and consultant on issues related to autism `This is an entrancing read and an excellent reflection of Dr Bogdashina's wide range of interests. It is to her credit as an academician that she draws upon such varied subjects as philosophy and quantum mechanics to illustrate her thought process and call into question different aspects of our individuality.'---Manuel Casanova, Gottfried and Gisela Kolb Endowed Chair in Psychiatry, University of Louisville `Olga Bogdashina's book is a magnificent and much-needed account of the nature of sensory differences in autism, full of fresh, fascinating and perceptive insights.'---Adam Feinstein, autism researcher, Autism Cymru, and editor of Looking Up (www.lookingupautism.org) In this ground-breaking book, Olga Bogdashina examines traditional theories of sensory perception and communication in autism. Drawing on linguistics, philosophy, neuroscience, psychology, anthropology and quantum mechanics, she shows that a wider perspective can reveal much about how the nature of the senses informs an individual's view of the world, and about how language both reflects and constructs that view. Examining the `whys and hows' of the senses, and the role of language, Olga Bogdashina challenges common perceptions of what it means to be `normal' or `abnormal'. In doing so, she shows that autism can help to illuminate our understanding of what it means to be human, and of how we have developed faculties that have shaped our cognition, language and behaviour. Her findings lead her to explore phenomena commonly associated with the paranormal - including premonitions, telepathy, and deja vu - which, she suggests, can largely be explained in natural terms. This intelligent and incisive book will appeal to anyone with a personal or professional interest in autism, including clinical practitioners, individuals on the autism spectrum and their families, students and researchers, speech and language therapists, occupational therapists and other professionals.
