The authors are researchers on
social-cultural perspective. They present a clear understanding of autism as
among the major prevalent mental disability in a childhood development. They
pay particular attention to the hindrance of success of equal treatment for
autistic children and argues that lack of development of trajectories of the
affected families, and lack of therapy service are the critical factors that
have a significant gap that requires being addressed.
They further provide information on Latino
population and a spectrum of culturally specific factors in the treatment of
black and Autistic in human service. They use a model that ecologically frame
all the preceding studies about the Latino and black children suffering from
autism. This source will provide a broad viewpoint for understanding the
experience of black and autism children.

impact of the health on the education experience. The author develops a

The research has done a thorough
examination of autism rate of identification in minor learning institutions in
the United States. The study offers a deeper insight on racial segregation and
disparity in recognition of children at the autism spectrum. Borrowing from
Lucia (2013), the author develops findings that prove that the education system
is providing inappropriate attention to students in various ethnic groups.
These researchers from the University of Kansas have developed a feasibility
procedure of gathering information from on social response on autism condition.
