Book excerpt: In Autism Spectrum, Attention Deficit Hyperactive, and Dyslexia Disorders, Robert Burns provides a comprehensive guide for education and care professionals, as well as parents, who support and manage neurodiverse young individuals. This book delivers essential knowledge on neurodiversity, its causes, characteristic behaviours, and effective interventions. Often, neurodiverse behaviours are misunderstood and misjudged, leading to inappropriate and harmful methods of control and punishment. By expanding your understanding, this resource aims to improve interactions and support for neurodiverse children across various settings, including schools, early childcare, homes, and social and healthcare contexts. This book explains neurodiversity, recounts troubling incidents that inspired its creation, and outlines its purpose. It explores the debate between Inclusive and Special School provisions and delves into Autism, ADHD, and Dyslexia, examining their behavioural characteristics, genetic and environmental causes, diagnosis, and treatments. It also addresses universal issues such as educational challenges, teacher professional development for better inclusion, the stigma of labelling, and transitions between educational levels. An extensive reference list is provided for readers interested in further research for training or self-knowledge. Empower yourself with the insights needed to foster a more understanding and supportive environment for neurodiverse children.
