Myndtalk With Dr. Pamela Brewer

 Dr. Bryna Siegel investigates the truths and fictions of public understanding about autism, questioning apparent realities too sensitive or impolitic to challenge.  Is there really more autism? How has the count expanded by diagnosing autism over other conditions? Have scientific methods in autism diagnosis gone hand-in-hand with autism increases? Are mild autism cases really a 'disorder,' rather than personality variant?
