Author Robert J. Bernstein has found a different approach based on cognition thinking in helping people of all ages with ASD. The author's goal is for people with ASD to be able to live in the world and connect with the people in it as themselves, to express their unique humanity and engage more fully in the human interactions that give life meaning and make it worth the effort of getting out of bed every day. He believes that whatever he does therapeutically must be on the ASD individual’s terms; he or she must lead. His therapy examples are categorized by age groups of: two to five years of age, six to 10 years of age, 11 to 14 years of age, and 19 years of age and up.

"Robert Bernstein is one of the smartest, most perceptive people I know. No matter where someone falls on the scale of 'normal,' Bernstein finds a way to connect." (Will Shortz, Crossword Editor, The New York Times)

"I’m really excited. I’m totally blown away. It’s fantastic. There’s such hope, more than hope, already I see it working. It is unbelievable. Everything is possible. Thank you." (Eileen Fisher, talking about her son)
