Description
Autism has become increasingly visible in recent years, and its impact is being felt across various aspects of society. This sociological analysis explores how autism has evolved over time, from its early days to the present day. The author examines the factors that have contributed to the growing awareness and diagnosis of autism, including changes in institutional practices, family dynamics, and child care systems. By tracing the history of autism activism and the development of new ideas, this book offers a nuanced understanding of this complex issue. Through its thoughtful analysis, The Autism Matrix sheds light on the ways in which societal structures and institutions shape our perceptions of autism, and how these perceptions can have far-reaching consequences for individuals and communities.
