The effect of autism on social skills is described with tips for dealing with family and personal relationships, parenting, living arrangements, and employment.Drawing from the author's lived experience, this book is an essential guide for all newly diagnosed adults on the autism spectrum, their families and friends, and all professionals new to working with adults with ASDs.
