The Autism Spectrum, Sexuality and the Law

The complex world of sex and appropriate sexual behaviour can be extremely challenging for people with ASD and, without guidance, many find themselves in vulnerable situations. This book examines how the ASD profile typically affects sexuality and how sexual development differs between the general population and those with ASD. A ground-breaking and honest account of Nick’s life – from school to work, from confusion to diagnosis, and drawing on the extensive knowledge of Dr Tony Attwood and Dr Isabelle Henault, this important book addresses the issues surrounding the autism spectrum, sexuality and the law.
