Winner of the Gold Award in the 2006 ForeWord Book of the Year competition, this groundbreaking book describes the unique challenges of women and girls with Asperger's Syndrome. In it, you'll read candid stories written by the indomitable women who have lived them. You'll also hear from experts who discuss whether "Aspie girls" are slipping under the radar, undiagnosed; why many AS women feel like a minority within a minority (outnumbered by men 4:1); practical solutions school systems can implement for girls; social tips for teenage girls, navigating puberty, the transition to work or university, and the importance of careers., At last, here is a book that provides up-to-date information about girls and women with Asperger's Syndrome. Covering topics such as diagnoses, education, puberty, relationships, and careers, experts in the field share practical advice for both caregivers and the women and girls who are affected by Asperger's. Other chapters are written by women who have been diagnosed with ASD. They candidly reveal their experiences and compassionately advise others. Finally, this book recognizes the unique problems of girls on the spectrum. About the Authors: Dr. Tony Attwood is the world's foremost authority on Asperger's Syndrome. Dr. Temple Grandin is arguably the most successful woman with autism. Catherine Faherty, Shelia Wagner, Mary Wrobel, and Teresa Bolick are major figures in the Asperger's field. Lisa Iland, who has a brother with autism, offers insightful social advice. Jennifer McIlwee Myers and Ruth Snyder have Asperger's Syndrome; their intriguing stories will make you laugh and cry., Women with autism spectrum disorders discuss their experiences, good and bad. Leading professionals in the autism field punctuate this masterpiece with fascinating articles, offering helpful advice based on many years of experience.

If you are looking for answers this book will help
I bought this book because my 10 year old daughter is aspergers. She was diagnosed in kindergarten and since then I have been doing alot of research. This book was recommended by one of her teachers and has helped give more insight on her.

Helpful book regarding AS' uniqueness to girls
Most books on AS have been written from the point of view of helping boys. Since boys' behavior with AS is more quickly recognizable as being out of the norm, girls with the Syndrome have gone virtually unnoticed. The only complaint I have with the book is that a couple of the contributors seem to be condescending in their tone regarding the girl with AS.
