    About this ebook

    Autism has affected more than 1.5 children in the USA. It is a lifelong condition for which there is no cure.

    What is Autism?
    Autism is a disorder caused in children during the first three years of their life. Autism is essentially a brain disorder. It affects the normal functioning of the brain. Autism is characterized by a disability in a child's verbal and non-verbal communication. A child with autism suffers from mental retardation, stereotyped activities and impaired learning. The child also suffers from restrained social interactions and pursuits of individualistic interests and hobbies.

    What causes Autism?
    Despite the fact that autism is such a life impairing disorder, researchers have not detected its common cause. Several studies indicate that it is caused due to abnormalities in the brain's structure and working. This fact has been supported by various brain scan comparisons. The comparisons showed that an autistic child's brain shape and structure differs from that of a normal child.

    Genes are also considered as a cause of autism. Genetics play an important role in a person's lifestyle and behavior. A child can suffer from autism if he has a family history of autism or other disabilities. 1 out of every 500 children is believed to develop autism on a genetic basis. Even if one child in the family suffers from autism, the chances of autism increase in the other children up to 20 percent.

    Prenatal infection with viruses such as cytomegalovirus (CMV) and rubella can also result in the development of autism in a child. If the pregnant mother has not built up immunity against this virus, it can cause autism in the new-born child.

    Autism can also develop in individuals suffering from medical conditions like Fragile X syndrome, tuberous sclerosis and undiagnosed phenylketonuria (PKU). Developmental brain abnormalities like macrocephaly, cerebral dysgenesis and microcephaly can also cause autism. Neurological disorders like bacterial meningitis and lead encephalopathy which are acquired after the birth can also lead to autism.

    Features of a child suffering from autism
    Autism is known to affect three prime areas of a child's life- verbal and non-verbal communication, creative mind play and social interaction. A child's ability in these three areas is impaired. The severity varies from individual to individual.

    One of the prime symptoms of autism is impaired social interaction. A child suffering from autism fails to respond to his name. The child avoids looking at other people and their activities. A child would remain passive to various tones of voice. He would remain blank about facial expressions and would not react to emotions of people. He is completely oblivious of what others feel for him, and what impact he is leaving on people.

    A child suffering from autism tends to engage himself in repetitive activities like biting, rocking, hair twirling and even head banging. Autistic children refer to themselves by their names instead of 'I' or 'me'. They also tend to speak quite late compared to other children.

    An autistic child shows unusual responses towards touch, sound or any other sensory stimulation. He might show decreased reaction and sensitivity towards injury or pain. He might react against being cuddled and other activities.

When he has got no work, you will see him spending time with his 4 brothers (dogs). He loves to play guitar and drums as well. At times you will notice him trying to ape his favorite Skrillex, Alex Mtch, Noisycat. Sid is a multi- talented, gifted boy who has done Post Graduation in Computers from University of Melbourne and Bachelors from Massachussets Institute of Technology, Texas, United States. He always firmly believed to create his own foot prints for others to follow than to follow other`s foot prints.  In the process he was let down several time by friends turned envy, coming across scammers, poltroon freaks try to suck happiness out of your life, he has seen the worst phase of life but he kept 100% faith in his hardwork, with 3 D`s, Dedication, Determination and Devotion.By the age of 17th, he made his 1st million and since then there had been no turning back.. He is a stock trader, blogger, affiliate marketer, author of best selling fiction and non- fiction books on several epub think tanks. He has been ranked 5th on most admired teen of South Asia and his books have been rated in New York Best Selling author. He believes with the birth of Internet Technology, it has become very easy for an individual to gain knowledge on any topic but people are too busy to search for it.  He firmly believes knowledge should be spread and if there is something which can be beneficial for others, share it.  This is one another reason why his books are kept @ $.99 so that it can be afforded by everyone.  People living on disability income, employed, unemployed, teens, school going kids. He further guesses there comes a phase in every one`s life when they can without thinking can spend $.99. A double cheeze hamburger costs much more than his books (lol).  So in short, Sid is a guy who loves to share knowledge with nothing expected in return.  It is highly recommended to look for a solution to any problem first in his ebooks, than to shed couples of hundreds of dollars ( your hard earned money) for the piece of information easily available for $.99
