Context Blindness and What Really Works for Children with Autism: Interview with Peter Vermeulen


Listen Later

In this interview, I talk with Peter Vermeulen about his hypothesis that context blindness is the primary feature of autism. This is a perspective that I think beautifully explains some of the unusual fears and phobias that autistic individuals and thus significantly enlarges our understanding of autism and anxiety. His most recent book with Kobe Vanroy is What Really Works for Children with Autism written especially for parents and teachers.

Dr Vermeulen has written over 15 books on autism and is an internationally recognized expert on this topic.
