Customer Rating: 

As a new ABA provider for students with autism, I found this book to be invaluable. It was recommended by several of my supervisors. This book is clearly organized and is presented in language that is understandable and concise. After reading this book, I believe that parents and educators alike should purchase this book. There are some great teachniques and strategies for bedtime, toilet training, compliance, ect. Parents with children that are typically developing would also benefit greatly from this book.

Customer Rating: 

This book gives a parent, teacher, or any other person who has an autistic child how to understand the reason for the child's behavior and the how to manage this behavior. It is an excellent source to understand how children can be taught in a classroom setting, or in a different enviornment. As a grandparent of two autistic children this book has helped me understand their behavioral patterns. I was able to see how their classroom instuction has followed many of the recommendations mentioned in this book.

A nice book, but something about it made me not really wanting to read it and I love reading.
Not sure what it was, it is okay, depends on the person. Parent probably would not enjoy it, a person in the practice would.

When I was taking a class with Bobby Newman he suggested I get this book - and I'm so please he did. It's comprehensive, explanatory, and a must have for those of us in the field using the principles of applied behavior analysis to bring about change in the behavior of children with autism. I have many other books - but this is the one I turn to first!

This book is an excellent resource for anyone wanting to set up formal ABA programming for their child or for anyone who wants to understand the steps of development in specific areas such as making conversation, understanding the difference between yes/no and learning how to read. I found the checklists at the back of the book to be the most helpful. I have had extensive training (as a parent) in ABA principles and Discrete Trial Training procedures and I found that this book was accurate and gave the right amount of detail when I wanted to set up my own programs to be implemented in my home.
