Résumé :	Early identification and intervention can lead to significantly better outcomes for children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Moreover, much has been learned in the past decade about early warning signs that previously might have gone unnoticed by professionals and parents. This volume brings together leading experts to present new advances in understanding and treating ASD in the first five years of life. Throughout, attention to both real-world practice and scientific research enhances the book's utiliry as a clinical reference and text. Grounded in cutting-edge frindings on the social-communication behavior of typically and atypically developing children, the volume first addresses assessment and diagnosis. Authors describe innovative measurement strategies and instruments that show promise in identifying ASD at a very young age. Mindful of the complexities of preschool diagnosis, the book also discusses the limitations of current diagnostic models. Following a review of screening approaches for community and clinical practice settings, evidence-based intervention models are examined in depth. Chapters focus on cote social-communication deficits, including problems with joint attention, communication and language, play, and imitation. Valuable advice is provided on matching treatment to individual children's needs, and salient directions for future research are identified. Concluding chapters explore some of the developmental and neurobiological processes that underlie social-communication impairments in ASD, further elucidating why and how early intervention can make a difference. Tony Charman, PhD, is Readcr in Neurodevelopmental Disorders in the Behavioural and Brain Sciences Unit at the Institute of Child Health, University College London and Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children. He studies development in children with autism and the clinical application of this work via screening, diagnostic, outcome, early intervention, and epidemiological studies. He will be Editor-in-Chief of the " Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry " from 2007 to 2010, is currently Associate Editor of the " Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders ", and is on the editorial boards of Autism : " The International journal of Research and Practice ", the " British Journal of Developmental Psychology " and the " Journal of Intellectual Disability Research ". Wendy Stone, PhD, is Professor of Pediatrics at Vanderbilt University, director of the Treatment and Research Institute for Autism Spectrum Disorders (TRIAD) at the Vanderbilt Kennedy Centre. And director of the Marino Autism Research Institue-Vanderbilt. Her primary research interests are early identification and intervention in autism, and the influence of early social-communicative development on later behavioral and diagnostic outcomes. She developed the Screening Tool for Autism in Two-Year-Olds (STAT), which is now being adapted for younger ages. She serves as chair of the Baby Siblings Research Consortium, is on the editorial boards of the " Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders " and " Infants and Yowig Children ", and bas participated in several National Institutes of Health work groups focused on be, t practices in autism research.
