Linwood Children's Center for autis tic children was founded in 1955 by teacher and therapist Simons. Oishi skillfully combines Simons's case studies, anecdotes, and reminis cences with her own observations and research to produce a readable, moving account. She provides an ex cellent explanation of autism, then a step-by-step analysis of the Linwood method of establishing relationships, patterning good behavior, overcom ing compulsions, developing skills, and fostering social and emotional development. This valuable guide book for teachers and therapists also has a hopeful message for parents of autistic children.Shirley L.
