About the book

The behaviour of people affected by autism is not always easy to understand. This book explains the underlying causes of that behaviour in easy-to-understand language. It also offers useful tips on how to deal with this behaviour. The colourful illustrations clarify the journey taken by information as it passes through the brain, and the eight disturbances that can impair information processing in people with autism.

This book provides not only an insight into the underlying causes of autistic behaviour, but also offers an overall approach.

About the authors

The strength of this book lies in the collaboration between two experts on autism. The practical knowledge of the founder of The Essential 5 methodology, Colette de Bruin, and the scientific knowledge of neurobiological behavioural scientist Dr Fabiënne Naber.

Colette de Bruin

Colette de Bruin is an authority in the field of autism. Together with her organisation in the Netherlands, her methodology and her books, she trains parents, professionals and others involved in caring for and counselling people with autism.

Dr Fabiënne Naber

Dr Fabiënne Naber is a neurobiological behavioural scientist and an expert on autism. Her in-depth study of scientific literature about autism has enabled her to identify correlations never previously recognised. As a result, she is able to clarify what happens differently in the brain of a person with autism and explain why The Essential 5 methodology is so effective.
