Această ediție aniversară se prezintă ca o monografie istorică și științifică esențială, marcând cinci decenii de la momentul în care Bernard Rimland a transformat radical înțelegerea clinică a spectrului autist. Notăm cu interes că volumul nu este doar o simplă reeditare, ci un dialog peste timp între textul original din 1964 și cercetarea contemporană. Putem afirma că forța acestei lucrări rezidă în capacitatea sa de a fi ancorat domeniul într-un curs de acțiune fiziologic, eliminând definitiv teoriile psihodinamice care stigmatizau familia.
Structura cărții este concepută pentru a oferi context: textul sursă al lui Rimland este flancat de analize noi semnate de Stephen M. Edelson și contribuții de la figuri de referință precum Simon Baron-Cohen. Volumul urmărește progresia de la definirea sindromului și analiza controverselor literaturii de specialitate, până la implicațiile pentru o teorie neuronală a comportamentului. În comparație cu Autism de Michael Rutter, care oferă o privire de ansamblu internațională asupra practicii clinice, lucrarea lui Rimland rămâne punctul de origine al perspectivei medicale moderne. De asemenea, aceasta extinde cadrul propus de Understanding Autism de Chloe Silverman prin documentarea directă a tranziției de la teoriile lui Bettelheim către genetica și neurologia actuală.
În contextul operei sale, Infantile Autism reprezintă fundamentul teoretic pe care s-au clădit volumele sale ulterioare, precum Understanding and Treating Anxiety in Autism sau Seeing Through New Eyes. Dacă lucrările mai recente se concentrează pe intervenții specifice (anxietate, tulburări vizuale sau de somn), acest titlu oferă arhitectura conceptuală necesară pentru a înțelege de ce autismul trebuie tratat ca o condiție biologică complexă și nu ca o problemă de atașament.

De ce să citești această carte
Această ediție este indispensabilă pentru profesioniștii din psihopatologie și cercetătorii care doresc să înțeleagă geneza teoriilor moderne despre autism. Cititorul câștigă o perspectivă istorică unică, validată de comentarii actuale ale liderilor din domeniu. Este o lectură fundamentală care explică trecerea de la speculație la știință, fiind în același timp un omagiu adus rezilienței comunității persoanelor cu autism și familiilor acestora.
Despre autor
Bernard Rimland (1928–2006) a fost un psiholog american, cercetător și părinte al unui copil cu autism, a cărui activitate a schimbat radical cursul psihiatriei infantile. Fondator al Autism Research Institute și al Autism Society of America, Rimland este creditat cu demolarea mitului „mamă-frigider” și cu promovarea cercetării biomedicale. Lucrarea sa de referință, premiată și recunoscută internațional, a pus bazele tratamentelor bazate pe dovezi. Expertiza sa s-a extins ulterior spre abordări multidisciplinare, explorând legăturile dintre neurologie, nutriție și comportament în spectrul autist.
Descriere
In 1964, the release of Dr. Bernard Rimland's book, Infantile Autism, revolutionized the autism field by providing the autism community with much-needed guidance on how to understand and treat individuals on the spectrum. He single-handedly realigned the field from a psychodynamic, parent-blaming perspective to a scientific, physiological course of action. This 50th anniversary edition presents the original book with contributions from leaders in the autism field, including Drs. Martha Herbert and Simon Baron-Cohen, who celebrate Dr. Rimland's exceptional work, and place his findings within the context of autism as we understand it today.
Bringing Dr. Rimland's findings up to date for a new generation of readers, this book will be fascinating reading for parents and those on the autism spectrum as well as professionals working with autism and anyone with an interest in autism and/or psychological theory.

Recenzii
This book is an unparalleled testament to [Dr. Rimland's] long and productive career, to his determination to solve the puzzle of autism and to a brilliant and inquisitive mind. Please enjoy this book. It is a testament to this man's exceptional journey to find answers to one of the most complex medical disorders of our time.
Dr. Rimland is to be commended for presenting the first evidence that autism was a biological condition. When his book was published, he was a lone visionary.
Bernard Rimland was an astonishingly farsighted pioneer in drawing a road map towards a neuroscience of autism. It is a fitting tribute that his seminal book, published fifty years ago, is made available to a new generation of researchers, together with reflections on its influence on our understanding of autism today.
Bernie Rimland's substantial impact on the field of autism can still be felt today. It is fitting that his legacy be honored with this reprint of his original book which was written 50 years ago. The added commentaries by today's experts highlight how Dr. Rimland's original insights permeate current perspectives on autism. Every student of autism should read Dr. Rimland's book.
Bernard Rimland wrote with both passion and scientific fervor. The end result was a classic that reinterpreted the prevailing view on autism by the medical profession. His book enriched our minds with a neurobiological perspective that continues to generate interest across generations with ideas that are still relevant.
While still in fellowship training in pediatric neurology, my chief Richmond Paine handed me a copy of the book on infantile autism by Bernard Rimland and told me to read it. I was impressed by the book and began to schedule young patients with autistic features. I got in touch with Bernard Rimland and offered to test blood levels in children with autism in a serotonin laboratory I had just started. The rest is history - that prescient book by Bernard Rimland to some extent altered my lifelong professional focus.
Bernie Rimland was a pioneer in the field of autism. From his work in being one of the founders of the Autism Society of America in 1965 to his work in setting up the Autism Research Institute, Bernie's legacy is one of caring, compassion and results. As we celebrate the 50th anniversary of Bernie's writings helping so many impacted by autism, we also celebrate the strong legacy of this man and his work.?
This book is a remarkable testament to where the neurobiology of autism began and thus where the recognition of autism as a brain disorder originated. The understanding of the neural, cognitive, and genetic basis of autism has come light years beyond its origins in this original treatise and is moving very fast. The updates to the original chapters provide a wonderful sense of the distance that has been covered. I would recommend this book to everyone with an interest in autism or as we call it now, autism spectrum disorder.
Bernard Rimland's book "Infantile Autism: The Syndrome and Its Implication for a Neural Theory of Behavior" (1964), was a pioneering effort, especially noteworthy because, as a parent as well as a scientist, he stuck out strongly for an objective, science-based approach to understanding autism at a time when the field was rocked by mysticism. The book was prescient, pointing at the connections between the underlying neural deficits in autism, and effective behavioral treatment which are only today being proven. Rimland's book, along with Rosalind Oppenheim's "Effective Teaching Methods for Children with Autism," were the very first in the field, both strongly promoted objective, systematic behavioral strategies and both were written by parents. Remarkable.
