Health & Personal DevelopmentMindfulness for Adults with Autism
A Handbook for Therapists and Adults with ASD
by Annelies Spek
This book discusses a new type of therapy that can help people with autism to be less overburdened, let go of recurrent thoughts, and get better at recognizing physical signs of stress. Mindfulness includes meditation techniques that are derived from Buddhism and that do not require much communication or insight in thoughts and feelings. This is especially beneficial for people with autism, for whom communication and social interaction can be a challenge. After a clear introduction to what mindfulness is, each chapter of this book offers a meditation exercise. For each meditation exercise useful tips and tricks are given, as well as potential pitfalls that relate directly to autism. Mindfulness for adults with autism is the first treatment for adults with autism that has proven to be effective. Because of its readability and the beautiful illustrations, this book is highly recommended for both therapists and people with autism.

Big Deals with Alternative Medicine
by Beate Frenkel
The market is growing for homeopathic remedies, diets and all kinds of miracle cures. Although homeopathic practitioners in Germany are largely unregulated, their supporters are growing in number. An industry has sprung up around alternative medicine that draws on the mistrust towards the pharmaceutical industry, medicine and the media. Many products are as harmless as they are ineffective – but some are dangerous or even lethal. Beate Frenkel investigates: where is the source of this boom? What role do conspiracy theories play as well as the influence of the internet? Why do politicians and the German Medical Association take so few preventive steps? Powerful examples are backed up with statements from doctors, patients and alternative medicine practitioners.
