Magnificent Minds

Bringing together twenty years of clinical experience and research on autism from a Harvard educated paediatric neurologist, this book is essential reading for anyone caring for a child with autism.

"For years, I searched for a book that I could recommend to parents-those just beginning to learn about autism as well as those with decades of experience. I looked for a book with all the essential information-the liquid gold-something a busy parent could get through while keeping up with the demands of life. I couldn't find that book, so I decided to write it."

Dr Suzanne Goh is a renowned paediatric neurologist who has spent decades working with autistic children. In this ground-breaking book, Goh combines her extensive experience with original research to give you a clear understanding of what autism is and how to create a holistic treatment roadmap for your child.

Based on Goh's revolutionary 'whole child approach,' you'll discover how to-

- Best support every aspect of your child's health
- Get the help you need and build a strong and supportive team
- Make informed decisions based on a deep understanding of your child's brain and body

Most importantly, Magnificent Minds will show you how to recognise and nurture your child's innate strengths - their intelligence, abilities, and gifts - and celebrate their neurodiverse magnificence.
