"Ask Dr. Tony" - The Book - Is Here!
10/15/18 - Dr. Tony Attwood and Craig Evans are pleased to introduce "Ask Dr. Tony," their second book together. The book is a compilation of fifty episodes of the Autism Hangout question-and-answer program video series in which Dr. Tony Attwood directly addresses the most pressing questions of those touched by autism. It also includes bonus sections of questions and answers from specific groups such as parents, teachers, public servants, social workers, and more. This book is an invaluable resource to keep helpful information present and available to the public. Craig and Dr. Tony's mutual goal? Thriving with autism!
Reviews:
“There’s a reason I watch videos with the captions turned on: catching the nuance of tone, the challenge of perspective, the speed of banter, and the import of content all at once is like isolating notes in a score the very first time the music plays. Which is why this book is so ingenious. Craig Evans has repackaged the fleeting flurry of video, transcribing and regifting Dr. Attwood’s insight and heart so that audiences can engineer their own learning pace and style. Plainly written and alive with conversation, it’s a great resource for empowering engagement, spurring independent thinking, and supporting active incorporation.”
Jennifer Cook O’Toole
“Who in the autism community has ever wished for a direct line to Dr. Tony Attwood? Or has spent time wondering what Dr. Attwood would think about the problems and situations that frustrate our lives as people with autism? This book is full of thoughtfully crafted questions originally asked by the autism community and answered through discussion between Dr. Attwood and C. Evans with care and concern.
It is a gift.”
Lisa Morgan
“Over twenty-five years ago, a fragile mother of two wrote three letters to Dr. Tony, praying for a moment of his time during his visit and to get the answer to the question, ‘Could I have autism?’ He pulled her out of the line, sat her down on the back of the stage, and gently gave her the answer. This book is that moment given repeatedly, answering many people’s pressing questions. With Craig Evans, Tony Attwood addresses the questions you’ve been needing answered the same way―kindly, gently, and with patience.”
Dena L. Gassner, MSW, adjunct professor
“Distilled from years of discussion on the “Ask Dr. Tony” show, Craig and Tony gift the autism community with easy-to-understand explanations combined with practical solutions for addressing some of the most vexing challenges facing individuals on the autism spectrum. This book is a must-read for anyone seeking greater appreciation of ASD individuals as an expression of the diversity of the human gene pool. In summary, the best of Dr. Tony Attwood brought to you by Craig Evans!”
Stephen Mark Shore, EdD
“Absolutely smashing! Dr. Tony Attwood’s advice is world-class. He completely understands the ASD mind and covers a wide range of much-needed advice for everyday life. As one of the Aspie mentors in Been There. Done That. Try This!, I highly recommend this book to those on the autism spectrum as well as parents and all involved with autism. Tony and Craig have knocked it out of the park!”
Anita Lesko, BSN, RN, MS, CRNA
“This collection of interviews between Dr. Tony Attwood, who steadfastly remains the most revered expert in Asperger’s syndrome, and the insightful and positive author Craig Evans is wonderful! It’s an easy read that delivers difficult concepts eloquently and respectfully.”

New Book for 2018!
I'm DELIGHTED to report that Dr. Tony and I are teaming up (again!) for another book! This time it's to document (in print) the wisdom he's been sharing for years through the "Ask Dr. Tony" video series! It seemed the natural thing to do since there's an archive of close to 40 programs at the youtube Autism Hangout channel. And now that we've started the series back up again, there's even more to come!
Click on the picture above for a short video of how this last idea came about. It was very similar to what launched "Been There. Done That. Try This! (hint... it was an after-thought after the interview). Watch the idea and the launch as it happened
We're humbled and honored that Future Horizons will be publishing this book of wisdom. Watch here for updates!"

10/6/17 - "Found in Translation" documentary about Dr. Tony Attwood now posted!
Professor Tony Attwood believes the "out of the box" thought processes of people on the autism spectrum will solve the world's big problems. He is credited with being the first clinical psychologist to present Asperger's syndrome not as something to be "fixed " but as a gift, evidenced in many of the great inventors and artists throughout history. But while Professor Attwood has reached the top of his field, he reveals in this episode of Australian Story the personal cost of a missed diagnosis in his own family. Early in his career, he didn't see the signs of Asperger's in his son Will. The consequences were devastating for everyone.

Dr. Tony Attwood would like to personally address your questions about successfully living with the challenges and gifts of Asperger's. This site is dedicated to fielding questions and addressing issues via a free, semi-monthly video posted here at Autism Hangout.
In 2008, Dr. Tony Attwood and Autism Hangout host Craig Evans started the "Ask Dr. Tony" program... a 10-30 minute video interview where Dr. Attwood addressed up to 12 select questions submitted by the 2,500 members of Autism Hangout. Forty-seven of those original shows can be found here.

Due to the program's popularity (some shows have received over 50,000 views), and the ongoing need to quickly share insights, learnings and helpful techniques with the autism community, Dr. Tony and Craig are teaming up again to address your questions about living a successful life on the spectrum.
The new "Ask Dr. Tony" show will feature a more refined focus based on the book Been There. Done That. Try This!

In 2012, Dr. Attwood, Craig Evans and Aspie Mentor Anita Lesko collaborated with over 30 noted “Aspie Mentors” including Temple Grandin, Dr. Stephen Shore, Jennifer Cook O'Toole and Liane Holliday-Willey to prepare a book of “Aspie Mentor Wisdom”.
The "Aspie Mentors" – those whose life experience authorizes them to say they’d “Been there, Done that,” and can recommend “Try this” to successfully navigate a specific challenge - address each of the 17 most stressing, pressing issues faced by those living with Asperger’s (see list below).
