Biomedical Interventions for Autism Explained
There is wealth of information on biomedical interventions for autism on the internet. ARI (Autism Research Institute), TACA (Talk About Curing Autism) and Generation Rescue are excellent resources. In addition, I recommend several books, some written by physicians who have children or relatives with ASD.
