Russell, Ginny, 1965- author. The rise of autism : risk and resistance in the age of diagnosis / Ginny Russell. Rise of Autism Abingdon, Oxon : Routledge, Taylor & Francis Group, 2021. 1 online resource (ix, 191 pages) : illustrations. text txt rdacontent computer c rdamedia online resource cr rdacarrier Routledge studies in the sociology of health and illness Description based on print version record. "This book investigates and examines why increasing numbers of people are being diagnosed with autism. Providing an engaging account of competing and widely debated explanations, and examining how these have led to differing interpretations of the same data, the author argues that the increased use of autism diagnosis is due to medicalisation across the life-course, whilst holding open the possibility that the rise may also be partly accounted for by modern day environmental exposures. The book also places crucial focus not on whether autism itself is valid as a diagnostic category, but whether it is useful as a diagnostic category, and how the functionality of the diagnosis has contributed to the rise. This serves to move beyond the question of whether diagnoses are "real" or social constructions, and instead asks: who do autism diagnoses serve to benefit, and at what cost do they come? The book will appeal to clinicians and health professionals, as well as medical researchers, who are interested in review of the data which demonstrates the rising use of autism as a diagnosis worldwide, and an analysis of the reasons why this has occurred. Providing theory through which to interpret the expanding application of the diagnosis and the broadening of autism as a concept, it will also be of interest to scholars and students of sociology, philosophy, psychiatry, psychology, social work, disability studies and childhood studies"-- Provided by publisher.
