The connection between AS/HFA/PDD-NOS and Brain Injury

[Guest guest]

Hi all....

Because I am not in school currently, I don't have any access to academic

journals and such. I am curious to know where I can find up to date information

on the connection between brain injuries and AS/HFA/PDD-NOS or autism in general

please.

Thanks,

Use your computer. In your Web-browser's 'location bar' (where you'd

enter a web-site's URL) enter:

" brain injury " and autism

....exactly as you see the line above, with 'quote-marks' and spaces as

shown. Do not add anything else - no leading http:, no www - nothing

but the words above.

Then go to some of the listed websites.

You won't get everything (or anything?) you want, but you *will get*

new words, ...new phrases to search on. Just keep doing that --

drilling down into the Internet -- eventually you'll find something useful.

You can enter simple plain English questions (any construction, any

subject):

any information about autism and brain injury?

That example casts a much wider net, much less specific even than my

first one. So, just successively narrow your questions to zero-in on

what you want.

Hey Bill,

I had to smile when I read your post.

It's not often that I encounter seniors advising the young'uns to look

to their search engine for their reference needs.

" Senior " ? Come on CJ; let's be honest. I'm OLD, plain and simple.

The " young'uns " ? As shown below, I'll " advise " *anyone*, anywhere,

anytime and on any subject - without fear, favor, let or hindrance.

Comes with the territory. ...At last! There *are* advantages to

curmudgeon-hood.

Google's OK as long as one remains *always aware* of its built-in search

*biases*. ...Which " these days " are more and more egregious, and ever

harder to evade.
