Abstract

Re-Thinking Autism: Diagnosis, Identity and Equality seeks to contribute to the growing field of critical autism studies and, according to one commentator quoted on the back cover, inaugurates this area of study – a bold and yet inaccurate statement, given previous texts and events that have sought to explore this area (for example, Arnold 2012 Arnold, L. 2012; Davidson and Orsini 2013 Davidson, J., and M. Orsini, eds. 2013; Greenstein 2014 Greenstein, A. 2014).

Cited bibliography overview

These indicators describe the bibliography cited by this publication. An author name is counted each time it appears in one cited reference, so the same person can be counted more than once. Names not yet linked to an author already present in AutiHub are treated as unknown, not as non-autistic. Last computed: 2 Oct 2026 14:02.
