"More than simply a list of social skills, this book takes readers through an almost chronological journey from how to find a potential group of friends to what to do to make a friend to how to talk to and engage with that person a journey that is well worth taking." CATHERINE LORD, Ph.D., director, Center for Autism and the Developing Brain; professor, Columbia University "Coping with the confusing, conflicting, and complex demands of the social world is one of the biggest challenges for those with autism. There is a pressing need for evidence-based interventions to support these young people and Laugesons book is one of the first to help fill this gap." PATRICIA HOWLIN, emeritus professor of Clinical Child Psychology, Kings College London "We often think of friendship as more an art than a science, but Laugesons work proves otherwise. Accurate, concise, and highly useful, the book sets a new standard for translating research into practice." PETER F.
