Abstract
In the search for neurobiological factors in the aetiology of autism, interest has focused on the temporal lobes. We present a case of Asperger's syndrome in an otherwise healthy adult with direct evidence of left temporal lobe damage on computerised tomography.This publication has 14 references indexed in Scilit:
