    “An Introduction to Exercise and Sport for People Who Have Autism”

    By Susie Appleman | August 11, 2009

    I just heard about this new book that deals with exercising and sports for people with Autism.  It’s written by Amanda Durrant and is available on Amazon as of 09/01/09.  This book contains helpful guidelines for providers which could encourage individuals with Autism who would normally find it very difficult to ineract in a sports setting in a focused way.  The books describes how to improve health, interaction, shoulder control, pelvic control, visual skills, hand or foot to eye coordination as well as symmetrical awareness, etc. 

    Should be a very useful book.  If anyone else gets it, let me know what you think!
