I have read the English translation of Asperger's work. Its very good. You can find it in Autism and Asperger Syndrome edited by Frith et al. I would post the parts I have, but I am afraid to do so due to the rights to the work. It will be published in our book coming out soon "Asperger's Disorder."

There is a study that shows that giftedness or high intellectual potential is associated with migraines. There may be a hypersenstivity that involves the neurotransmitter glutamate. Also, of course, stress, lack of sleep, dietary sensitivities and caffeine in particular are major migraine triggers.

We agree with the title since there are no books titled Asperger's Disorder and when someone first gets the diagnosi...

I'm one of the editors on this medical textbook and I'm trying to write the preface. I'm somewhat torn by the syndrome v/s disorder question and I am wondering how people at wrong planet feel about the disorder label. Also, what would you like to see in the preface.
