Everyone seems to agree that we have an epidemic of what is diagnosed as autism. But, in the history of our society, there has never been "an epidemic" of any developmental or genetic disorder. Yet, over the span of 30 years, autism has gone from affecting one in 5,000 children to one in 90, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. So what is this "autism", which has come to affect the lives of so many? In this groundbreaking book, Dr. Goldberg and his colleagues illustrate why autism must be a symptom of a treatable, neurological disease that attacks the brain’s immune system.

Through Goldberg’s personal anecdotes, case studies, and original research, you will come to understand that autism is:

  • Not psychological or developmental—it is a medical disease.
  • Caused by a dysfunction in the neuro–immune system. Similar to ADD/ADHD and chronic fatigue in that they all have different "labels" but are variations on the same thing: neuro-immune dysfunction.

In order to save children from the disease and social stigma of autism, Dr. Goldberg unpacks the myth behind the illness and provides a wealth of diagnostic and treatment information that will transform your own life and the lives of those around you.

Reseñas editoriales

Students of popular science and parents of autistic children will want to hear The Myth of Autism: How a Misunderstood Epidemic is Destroying Our Children, by Dr. Michael Goldberg (with Elyse Goldberg). Dr. Goldberg, a practicing doctor with decades of experience, challenges many of the most commonly held assumptions about this increasingly visible condition. Among Dr. Goldberg's theses is the idea that autism, correctly understood, is not a condition at all but a disease that can be treated with diet and medication. Narrator Clinton Wade gives a clear and measured reading of the research and experience Dr. Goldberg relies upon to make this controversial claim. While occasionally daunting to the lay-listener, The Myth of Autism is nevertheless filled with fascinating and unorthodox ideas.

Ich habe schon sehr viele Bücher über Autismus gelesen, aber keines konnte wirklich den Autismus erklären. Dieses Buch ist zumindest für mich das erste wirklich interessante und wichtige Buch. Die Erklärungen sind plausibel und gut verständlich, hoffentlich werden mehr Forscher und Ärzte sich endlich Dem Thema annehmen und wir Dr. Goldberg wirklich etwas tun statt leere Phrasen von sich zu geben. Ich kann das Buch wärmstens empfehlen

Wichtiges Buch zum Autismus

Where does The Myth of Autism rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

This book is quite a bit different than most books I read or listen to so that is a difficult question to answer and I will leave blank.

What other book might you compare The Myth of Autism to and why?

I have no book to compare to.

What about Clinton Wade’s performance did you like?

Clinton Wade seemed to do OK for how the book is written. Lots of information and not many chances for expression of emotions even though he seemed to do well when there was.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

A documentary of a different approach to Autism.

Any additional comments?

This is a good book with an open mind. I really wish the Author would not have obsessed with the differences in diagnosis. For example, a diagnosis of Bipolar disorder even though it is a psychological disorder Bipolar disorder can be derived from physical or mental abuse creating a psychological disorder. So his argument against what we call Autism is a waste of time for me. Even though I think what he says could absolutely be right about treating someone with Autism. I would instead title the book something like "The Goldberg Solution to Autism" or something much simpler and then compare how diet, allergies, inflammation, medications he uses vs the common methods that have shown little success or have even created more complications.

Overall good book takes an open mind

Very good book. Long overdue explanation of the so called spectrum. Finally a theory that makes medical sense.

Hard to argue with!

This book can sometimes get quite technical and the lack of inflection during the narration can make it a bit hard to follow, especially when footnotes and sources are read.
The information contained in the book should be a must read for all medical students, family medicine practitioners and pediatricians and should be recommended for all parents regardless of their child's health as it will open their eyes to potential problems that can be helped.
Very happy to have found this book on Audible.

A must read for all parents, med students and MDs!

I wanted to write a positive review because unfortunately many people left negative reviews, and perhaps this book just wasn’t for them. Many people are offended by. Anything that goes outside of our current medical standards, and the Medical process that things have to go through. if you were one of those people, this book is not for you if you are an open minded person who can think for themselves, I would encourage you to actually listen to this book and give it a chance. It makes so much sense and makes all the puzzle pieces for me to come together as someone who also suffers and has suffered all my life since about first grade with autistic symptoms. I have also often wondered if I had an immune system issue because I have so many health problems and doctors have just written me off and never listen to me. They just take my money so I am forced to figure things out for myself time and time again. Limb here to share this, but last Sunday night a minister prophesied to me that I would get strategies from God about food that’s healthy for the body and I would be able to help others as well. I believe this book is the first step that God has led me to, and it is so helpful. The author who is so painstakingly has researched this topic. Go in with an open mind not determined to be offended, and it may be of help to you.

Amazing

It has evidence based solutions for Autism. Wish I had this information years ago. As someone on the spectrum I’ve tried many different things, some success and some not, but now I can see why and what to do about it.

A great way to help people on the spectrum and with ADD.

my son at the age of two was diagnosed with autism now that he's three he has made some improvements with the OT and ABA that we've already had him doing but now thanks to Dr Goldberg I have another avenue to pursue that I'm comfortable with!

information unable to discard!

Talk about a man who cares about children! After reading this book I hunted down Dr. Goldberg in California! He is now treating my Son Robert. Recommend 100%.

Dr. Goldberg is amazing

This is book may not be for everyone. If you have a strong believe in one direction of Autism. Then you may not want to listen, as this book will challenge your believe. I am personally like to inform myself with as much information about a subject as possible. If you have an open mind, then you should enjoy the book. However, the narration is a bit monotoned and could’ve been better. It is manageable.

Informative
