Autism Timeline 1 of 5 - Timeline Help
Autism Timeline part 1 of 5 from 1911 to 1969 at Timeline Help. The word autism or autistic comes from the Greek word autos which means self. Autists have a social and a lanuguage impairment, and they tend do repetitive or stereotyped activities. My little nephew is an autist. That's why I'm very interested in the history of the disease. So, I decided to make a history timeline for his parents. All scholars who have contributed to the discovery and the development of treatments and therapies, support groups, and research institutes are represented in my Autism Timeline.
