Although the majority of subjects interviewed and history of this series includes information based primarily on California data, it is by far the most comprehensive and multifaceted article I have ever read regarding autism and its origin history.  It is also interspersed with videos containing many adults formally diagnosed with an ASD that is quite compelling.  Personally I found Day #2 and today (Day #4) to be the most interesting, but that’s only my opinion!  The series includes interesting data of a grown man, discovered several years ago in the Norristown State Hospital who was thought to be schizophrenic and mentally retarded, but who had been simply overlooked as profoundly autistic after it was recommended to his family that he be institutionalized at the age of 10! Some “autism warriors” I am fortunate enough to know will also be interested in reading about data provided by our very own Mandell (the well-renowned epidemiologist from our local University of Pennsylvania autism research team)
