      An invaluable resource for professionals working with autistic trans, non-binary or gender-variant people, this edited collection sets out advice, research and own stories to inform their practice. It is structured around three sections, the first setting the scene, the second featuring professionals discussing their work, and the third featuring autistic trans and non-binary people discussing their experiences of gender variance, including access to services, experiences of growing up trans/non-binary at school and the challenges - and joys - that navigating questions of gender in a family context may bring.

      Setting out advice, research and personal reflections to inform professionals'' daily practice and overall understanding of the lives and experiences of autistic transgender and non-binary people, this edited volume is an invaluable resource for anyone who seeks to engage more with autistic transgender, non-binary or gender-variant people.

      Aiming to contextualise the overlap of autism and gender variance, this book features chapters by leading authorities such as Wenn Lawson, Damian Milton, Isabelle Hénault, Reubs Walsh, Lydia X. Z. Brown, and Shain Neumeier as well as other contributors from around the world. The collection is structured in three sections; the first provides interdisciplinary and intersectional approaches on autism and gender as well as the experiences of transgender and non-binary autistic people; the second features professionals discussing their work, the challenges they face and the solutions they find helpful; and the final section presents thoughts and perspectives from trans and non-binary autistic people on various aspects of their experiences, focusing on information that professionals will need to consider and discuss with the people they support.

      Combining rich and nuanced accounts of the lives of autistic trans people, practical guidance and information as well as the latest academic research about autistic transgender and non-binary individuals, this unique collection is essential reading for any professional wanting to develop their daily practice.
