Autism in Complex Presentations | Gillberg, Clark, and Mance

In this podcast, Christopher Gillberg, Elaine Clark, and Abigail Mance discuss their book Autism in Complex Presentations: A Guide to Assessment and Diagnosis. It is available now: https://www.mackeith.co.uk/book/autism-in-complex-presentations-a-guide-to-assessment-and-diagnosis/

 

In this podcast, the editors discuss the following:

00:00 Introduction

01:40 Why was the book written?

02:43 How is the book structured?

04:34 How is the book different?

 

Autism does not always present in clear or typical ways, especially when accompanied by other neurodevelopmental or medical conditions. Autism in Complex Presentations brings together an international team of clinicians and researchers to provide a practical, evidence-based guide to the assessment and recognition of autism in such contexts. 

 

Chapters explore the challenges professionals face when standard tools fall short: when autism is difficult to identify, when co-occurring conditions obscure the picture, and when diagnostic clarity is crucial for appropriate support. The book explores a range of key topics such as demand avoidance, selective mutism, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, epilepsy and vision impairment. Each chapter includes a clinical vignette to bridge theory and practice, alongside insights from young people and their families to highlight the lived experience of navigating complex assessment journeys.
