What causes autism? Is it a genetic disorder, or due to some unknown environmental hazard? Are we facing an autism epidemic? What are the main symptoms, and how does it relate to Asperger syndrome? Everyone has heard of autism, but the disorder itself is little understood. It has captured the public imagination through films and novels portraying individuals with baffling combinations of disability and extraordinary talent, and yet the reality is that it often places a heavy burden on sufferers and their families. This Very Short Introduction offers a clear statement on what is currently known about autism and Asperger syndrome. Explaining the vast array of different conditions that hide behind these two labels, and looking at symptoms from the full spectrum of autistic disorders, it explores the possible causes for the apparent rise in autism and also evaluates the links with neuroscience, psychology, brain development, genetics, and environmental causes including MMR and Thimerosal. This VSI also explores the psychology behind social impairment and savantism, and sheds light on what it is like to live inside the mind of the sufferer.
About the Series: Combining authority with wit, accessibility, and style, Very Short Introductions offer an introduction to some of life's most interesting topics. Written by experts for the newcomer, they demonstrate the finest contemporary thinking about the central problems and issues in hundreds of key topics, from philosophy to Freud, quantum theory to Islam.

Perfect and convenient tool
Size: Basic Frother, Color: Black
I am very happy with my new milk frother. Really easy to use and I was very pleased with the results. I got to enjoy my first home made cappuccino and it was perfect. I have only used the frother attachment so far but I plan to use the whip the next time I scramble a couple of eggs. Very please with my purchase.

Powerful, Fast, and USB-C Rechargeable – Way Better Than AeroLatte
Size: Basic Frother, Color: Black
I’ve been using this daily for several weeks and it’s been excellent. I use it to mix creatine, whey protein with milk, and to froth warm milk. It handles all of it without issue. Strong motor. Mixes powders fast with no clumps Great for frothing. Milk comes out smooth and consistent USB-C charging is a big upgrade. No batteries to deal with Holds a charge well even with daily use This easily outperforms my old AeroLatte. It’s noticeably more powerful and gets the job done faster. If you mix supplements or like frothed milk, this is a solid buy.

I love this mixer
Size: Basic Frother, Color: Black
I love this mixer. I don't know how we got along before we had this. We have had this small hand mixer for 2 years, using it several times every day, day after day and it finally stopped working and I am ordering another one right now. I can't live without it. I make our bullet coffee with it. My wife makes her morning shake with it. I could go on and on but I need to get another one ordered right now.
