Abstract
Autism is conceptualized as a behavioural syndrome of multiple neurological injuries associated with a wide variety of medical conditions. The possibility that the brain dysfunction might underlie a specific lack of a theory of mind is discussed. Autism is seen as possibly existing on a spectrum of disorders including both Kanner autism and Asperger Syndrome. Epidemiological, biological, psychological and follow-up findings are briefly reviewed.
