From 2002- Dr. Kathryn Stewart talks about her book "Helping a Child with Non-Verbal Learning Disorder or Asperger's Disorder: A Parent's Guide." Please note- in recent years there has been some movement away from discussing Asperger's as a 'disorder' versus a 'syndrome.' Many people working in this field now prefer to refer to someone with Asperger's as a person who needs to be understood rather than having a problem that needs to be fixed.
