Like the first edition, this completely updated and revised text still focuses on the "theory of mind" hypothesis--an important new psychological approach to autism-- and provides an invaluable discussion about the nature of what is widely recognized as the most severe childhood psychological disorder. But it provides expanded coverage of evolution and new sections on infancy, neurobiology, and cognitive neuroscience.

Simon Baron-Cohen, Professor in Developmental Psychopathology and Director of the Autism Research Centre at the University of Cambridge, is the author of "Mindblindness" (MIT Press, 1997) and "The Essential Difference: The Truth about the Male and Female Mind".

Tager-Flusberg is Research University Professor at the University of Massachusetts and Senior Scientist in the Psychological Sciences Division at the Eunice Kennedy Shriver Center.
