Autism: focusing on environmental exposure
Summary:
The purpose of this paper is to present a complete definition of autism and the
spectrum of autism according to the relevant theories and investigations of
recent years. Moreover, the different approaches about the causes, biological,
hereditary or natural, of this disease will be analyzed. Unfortunately, autism
remains behaviorally, not biologically, defined and diagnosed and this
significantly limits the approaches that can be used for the early
identification and treatment of this disease. In this paper, therefore, there
will be an effort to present all the possible ways of dealing with autism
through medication and special education, in order to deal with the parameters
of this disorder and to help the individual to be more “functional” in society.
