I was really looking forward to reading this book. It covered a subject that is of real interest to any parent, educated, carer and individual with Aspergers themselves. I was not disappointed I would recommend this book to all these groups because it is full of practical advice and tips that will help teach social skills to teens and young adults on the spectrum... it is full of lots of real life examples... this book is a good resource and I recommend it.
