Sensory Perceptual Issues in Autism and Asperger Syndrome: Different Sensory Experiences - Different Perceptual Worlds by Olga Bogdashina. This comprehensive guide addresses sensory perceptual problems commonly faced by individuals with autism spectrum conditions. Despite being a frequently identified issue, these problems are often overlooked by professionals. The book provides an in-depth exploration of the sensory perceptual experiences and sensitivities seen in autism, as well as cognitive differences caused by them.

Brought up-to-date with current research and thinking on autism, this book is essential reading for teachers, parents, professionals, and individuals with autism seeking to understand and address the complexities of sensory perceptual differences. By gaining a deeper understanding of these issues, readers can develop effective strategies to support individuals with autism spectrum conditions.
