Description: A guide for parents and professionals working with children with autism who have a restricted dietary range. It helps the reader to understand the behaviour and work with it, in order to gradually increase the range of food a child will eat. Informative and accessible, the book helps manage selective eating in all its manifestations. Dr Gillian Harris has worked for over 35 years, both in research and as a clinician, almost exclusively with children with food refusal behaviours. Dr Elizabeth Shea has worked as a clinician for 20 years both with children with autism and children with food refusal behaviours. Acknowledgments; Introduction; PART I. Introduction To Part 1; 1.
