A Programmed Manual on Career Success: For People on the Autism Spectrum (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781931773249)

For anyone on the autism spectrum, success in the workplace can make a tremendous difference in the quality of life. This book makes explicit the unwritten rules of workplaces. It also teaches psychological skills that are crucial for workplace success. Many individuals on the autism spectrum find that systematically studying these subjects produces much more success than attempting to pick them up informally through incidental learning. The ideas and skills discussed are also relevant to "neurotypical" individuals as well. The programmed format allows very frequent checking, and reinforcement, of comprehension.

Joseph Strayhorn, Jr., M.D. is a psychiatrist who has worked with people on the autism spectrum for several decades.
