Abstract

Phoebe Caldwell offers a fresh insight into autism spectrum disorders with The Anger Box. Shifting attention away from presentation and symptoms of autism alone, Phoebe explores and attempts to understand the sensory issues experienced by those on the autistic spectrum and their neurobiological roots in an effort to find new ways of alleviating the distress that can characterise adults and children on the autistic spectrum.
